Award Ceremony for the Best Food and Wine Tourism Thesis 2023

During the fifteenth annual meeting of the Italian Society of Tourism Sciences (SISTUR), the award ceremony for the best thesis in food and wine tourism was held.

The initiative: the award, promoted in collaboration with the Italian Association for Food and Wine Tourism, recognises high-quality academic work focused on the growing role of food and wine tourism in Italy and internationally.

The 2023 result: the first prize went to Giovanni Feninno of the University of Trento for his thesis on the Via degli Dei and its socio-anthropological relationship with food culture and territory.

Why it matters: supporting academic research helps strengthen the field, improve knowledge transfer and connect higher education with the evolution of tourism practice.
