Prospective as a framework of analysis for the tourist use of Wild Edible Mushrooms (WEM) in the center of Mexico

Wild Edible Fungi (WEF) have historically been used by forest communities as they are a fundamental component of their food culture and a strategic subsistence resource. In addition, they represent an opportunity for local productive diversification based on the impulse of rural tourism, oriented towards the impulse of mycotourism. The aim of the article article was to outline a framework of theoretical methodological analysis from a foresight perspective. As a methodological procedure, a review of the literature on mycotourism and the HCS was carried out in scientific journals. As a result, 48 variables were identified that affect the conformation of the mycotourism system and that are an approximation for the generation of future scenarios for the recreational use of wild edible fungi.
