Beatrice Waleghwa

Doktorand|Doctoral Student

Bakgrund

I am a doctoral student in tourism studies. I have a bachelor’s degree in hospitality and tourism management from Kenyatta University, Kenya. My master’s degree is in tourism and sustainability from Linnaeus University, Sweden.

My main research interests include tourism, transportation, sustainability, destination development, planning, spatial analysis, wildlife, national parks, and citizen science.

My doctoral research is about understanding transportation challenges in rural tourism areas and how to plan for sustainable mobility in such areas. I mainly use interviews surveys, and mapping methods in my current research.

I am doing my doctoral studies in collaboration with Dalarna University (DU). I research at the Center for Tourism and Leisure Research (CeTLeR) at DU.

I have been involved in two projects at CeTLeR:
a) EU Interreg Mobility and Accessibility in Rural Areas (MARA)
b) Micro-based decision support for sustainable tourism and infrastructure planning (MIRANDA)
