Aspectos gerais dos principais impactos do desenvolvimento do turismo em Mato Grosso

Abstract

This study analyzes the impact of tourism on the generation of employment in the tourist centers of Mato Grosso between 2011 and 2022. Using a qualitative-quantitative approach, data from Sedec, RAIS, and SEFAZ were analyzed to assess the number of formal jobs, education levels, revenue, and credit granted to the tourism sector. Findings indicate that tourism has significant development potential, although challenges such as high informality and the need for public policies that support better infrastructure and professional qualification persist. This research highlights tourism's role as a regional economic driver, with effects on social inclusion and economic diversification.
