Abstract

The objective of this research work is to determine sustainable tourism from the social responsibility of tourism companies, through studies carried out by Latin American countries such as Peru, Colombia and Nicaragua, to determine how companies have been responsible in relation to each of the axes of sustainability. This research was carried out following the guidelines of each of the proposed objectives, beginning by defining the theoretical aspect of sustainable tourism and the social responsibility of tourism companies, followed by describing social responsibility in relation to the axes of sustainability such as the environment, sociocultural and economic axis, and finally demonstrating how tourism companies have been responsible in relation to the sustainability axes during a given period of time. The methodology is of a documentary nature, since it is a data collection method in a context of mainly scientific studies, which was carried out using hermeneutic tools (signature and focalization) as an instrument of analysis and interpretation. Among the main results, it was obtained that the companies taken into account have been responsible with the axes of sustainability, some with more inclination in the environmental aspect in relation to the conservation of the environment, and others in the sociocultural aspect, from collaborations in social projects to the respect and well-being of the workers, others with the economic axis linked to the contributions and the relationships that are created with the clients, thus achieving sustainability in their services and products offered to tourists.
