Family, Work, and Tourism: Cross-Culture Surveys
Initiated by Dr. Che-Jen Su in 2014, the Commonwealth Research Program (CRP) is a worldwide study intending to explore general issues of family, work, and tourism in cross-societal contexts. CRP has been conducted by more than 80 researchers from 25 societies (either countries or regions). The ongoing program’s outcomes were published on Tourism Review, Service Business, Asia Pacific Journal of Tourism Research, SAGE Open, International Journal of Tourism and Travel, Communications, and Social Science Journal. The CRP fellows reach out to all of those who want to get more insight into links connecting societies, family, work, and tourism/leisure (https://battle7447.wixsite.com/crp-taiwan).
