Abstract
The thesis analyses the factors affecting the implementation of ESG (environmental, social and governance) principles in Uzbekistan’s tourism sector, using Bukhara region as a case study. Based on the author’s “CISR model” (Climate – Infrastructure – Society – Regulation), the level of regional ESG readiness is assessed and practical proposals for sustainable tourism development are formulated.
