Abstract

Today, in the world, the income from tourism ranks third after the income from the export of fuel and chemicals, which reached a share of 4.7% of the world's total exports in 2019, and for forty poor countries in the world, tourism After oil, it is the second most important source of foreign exchange. According to the statistical report of GMTI 2021, the countries of Malaysia, Turkey, and Saudi Arabia have occupied the first to third ranks of halal tourism. Iran's economy has a lot of potentials to attract financial benefits from this industry. The current research aims to determine the effective variables that such tourism demands, and provide a model in the form of an endogenous growth by examining the effect of halal tourism education and promotion in Iran and calculating the factors affecting it. To achieve this goal, the process of this model was simulated with the help of mathematical models, and the effects of changes in the factors affecting tourism were investigated. Based on research findings, variables such as foreigners' income, income elasticity of demand, infrastructure factors such as education and promotion of tourism and transportation, roads, culture, tourism, and religious capitals have a positive effect on the number of tourists. Also, some factors have a negative effect on the number of tourists, including the price elasticity of tourism demand, the tax rate on service goods, and the price level.
