Future of Accessible Hospitality in Finland
To gain expert information in order to provide future insights about accessible hospitality in Finland, we organize and conduct a Delphi study. The Delphi method is well used among future researchers. It has a few special characteristics: 1) it is based on anonymity, and thus the opinions of other members of the expert panel do not influence the opinions of a single member and 2) the method includes iterative rounds, which enable the members of the panel to reframe their opinion. The data for the research is gathered during autumn 2017 with two rounds of virtual expert panel. Data will be analyzed and results compiled during spring 2018. The paper will contribute to the discussions of inclusion in tourism by providing a viewpoint of futures studies.
