A cluster of social tourism: issues of forming

The article discusses the problems of budgetary institutions interaction in a cluster operating within the framework of social tourism. Starting 2011, in the Russian Federation the concepts and various development programs of tourist and recreation areas (target, targeted, investment) are being developed. In this connection, the authors touch upon the question of the social policy effectiveness, which is regulated by the state, but with that the conditions for the services development are not created. The question of social tourism clusters is raised separately. They can flexibly respond to the quantitative and qualitative parameters of demand of both individual tourists and corporate clients. The authors present the social tourism system tools, including the program of activities, which are carried out within the framework of the Federal Target Program "Development of domestic and inbound tourism in the Russian Federation 2011-2018".
