Despite the development opportunity brought by tourism, Gorée’s territorial and social problems have worsened in the last decades, mainly as a consequence of bad governance, while its local population has been unable to improve its living conditions through this activity.

The article describes very briefly the development and critical aspects of cultural tourism on the island of Gorée, world-famous destination for memory turism connected to the slave trade.
