Resilience is an umbrella concept with many different layers of meaning. While the concept of resilience is widely used in other disciplines, the discussion on resilience in tourism studies is developing scarcely. There is essentially no resilience framework that can be used to guide tourism destinations to measure the level of crisis resilience. To that end, the goal of this paper is to discuss and propose the conceptual framework of destination crisis resilience. This framework is intended as a starting point for a wider discussion of factors that contribute to destination resilience and consequently provides a groundwork to develop a toolkit of matrixes and approaches.
