Welcome to the Proceedings of the International Conference on Sustainable Green Tourism Applied Science - Social Applied Science 2026 (ICoSTAS-SAS 2026). This conference provides an international platform for scholars, researchers, practitioners, and policymakers to share and discuss interdisciplinary research in social applied sciences that contributes to sustainable tourism, community empowerment, business innovation, education, governance, culture, and environmental responsibility. The papers included in this proceeding demonstrate the broad contribution of social applied sciences to sustainable development and green tourism. Several studies focus on sustainable tourism, cultural interpretation, local wisdom, heritage tourism, spiritual tourism, culinary tourism, tourism village governance, tourist guides, hotel industry practices, and the development of community-based tourism models. These works reflect the importance of culture, community participation, and local identity in strengthening sustainable tourism practices.
