dc.description.abstractThis study aims to explore the trend towards gender equality in the tourism sector of the Petra region, Jordan. To do so, a mixed methods design including a questionnaire and in-depth interviews was employed for female residents of rural and urban areas in the region. The results show that women do not have favourable view of tourism’s economic impacts and that several barriers exist to their employment in the tourism sector. The findings’ implications and future studies are addressed.
