摘要
新冠疫情对全球旅游业产生了巨大冲击.非洲作为世界重要旅游经济的增长区域,疫情对其旅游业影响备受学界关注,但现有研究较少从综合性和整体性视角对其进行探究.在整理相关资料的基础上,基于此类公共卫生事件对旅游业的影响路径,综合分析了新冠疫情对非洲旅游业的影响.利用ArcGIS的可视化功能对非洲北部、东部以及南部的国际旅游人数和国际旅游收入数据进行区域时空变化分析,并对埃及、毛里求斯、加纳和南非进行国家尺度上的分析,增加了对这一影响过程的微观认识.研究表明,非洲国际旅游人数和国际旅游收入在2020年跌幅较大.但从区域分析结果来看,疫情并没有改变原本的国际旅游人数和国际旅游收入总体空间格局.微观层面上的国别案例研究表明,面对疫情对旅游业的影响,非洲国家采用了一系列以经济手段为核心的措施复苏旅游业.后疫情时代,非洲国家应抓住机遇,积极开放旅游市场,推动旅游业发展,关注疫情后旅游市场新变化,适应旅游业复苏发展新趋势.
Abstract
The pandemic of Coronavirus disease(COVID-19)has had a huge impact on the global tourism industry.The tourism industry had been growing rapidly in Africa before the pan-demic.So,the impact of the COVID-19 epidemic on the tourism industry in Africa has attracted a lot of attention from academics,but the existing studies have seldom explored it from a com-prehensive and holistic perspective.Based on the collation of relevant information,the impact of the COVID-19 epidemic on the tourism industry in Africa is comprehensively analyzed based on the path of the impact of such public health events on the tourism industry.Utilizing ArcGIS visualization,we analyze regional spatial and temporal variations in international tourism num-bers and receipts for Northern,Eastern,and Southern Africa,as well as for Egypt,Mauritius,Ghana,and South Africa,providing a nuanced understanding of this impact process.The find-ings indicate that international tourism arrivals and receipts in Africa declined significantly in 2020.However,regional analysis shows that the COVID-19 epidemic did not alter the existing spatial patterns of international tourism numbers and receipts.Country case studies at the micro level reveal that African countries have implemented various economic measures to revive tour-ism amid the epidemic's impact.In the post-epidemic era,African nations should seize opportu-nities to actively expand the tourism market,promote development,monitor new changes in the tourism sector,and adapt to emerging trends in recovery and growth.
