Abstract
La crisis sanitaria por la pandemia de COVID-19, no sólo ha impactado profundamente los sistemas sanitarios, sino también las dinámicas sociales y económicas de todos los países, empujando a un país como Costa Rica a una crisis económica. En este sentido, la urgencia y necesidad de contar con políticas, estrategias, modelos y planes orientados a la reactivación económica es fundamental.
El presente trabajo consistió en la elaboración de un Plan Estratégico Regional Basado en Turismo para la Reactivación Económica, específicamente en el cantón de Limón, de la provincia homónima. Para lograr obtener este producto, fue necesario realizar un proceso diagnóstico que permitiera caracterizar la zona, entender el impacto de la crisis e identificar las necesidades en términos de reactivación económica. Posteriormente, se realizó una priorización de la actividad económica con mayor impacto y encadenamientos productivos, como lo es el turismo. Debido a la dinámica y características de la zona, se identificaron 4 ejes turísticos: turismo urbano cultural, ecoturismo, agroturismo y turismo indígena o etnoturismo. De estos se prioriza el turismo urbano de índole cultural, del cual se despliegan 2 proyectos específicos que abordan integralmente el eje. Todo lo anterior en busca de la protección y fomento del bienestar, calidad de vida de las personas y desarrollo urbano del cantón de Limón.
