Today, on **World Tourism Day**, we recognize the transformative power of tourism in fostering cultural exchange, driving economic growth, and creating sustainable development opportunities. This year, the theme focuses on **"Tourism and Green Investments"**, a call to prioritize eco-friendly practices and ensure that tourism remains a catalyst for environmental protection and economic resilience. As we embrace responsible tourism, let's contribute to a future where travel enhances both the planet and its people.

Slow Tourism is here to stay! It's already one of the biggest trends in 2024 and will only grow over the next years as more and more travellers prioritise sustainability and authentic local experiences over mass tourism. The current anti mass tourism sentiment experienced in many destinations will only accelerate Slow Travel's growth!

Have you ever considered how we impact the world when we travel? 🧳 Tourism makes up a significant part of the global economy. But without careful planning, it can lead to environmental damage and the displacement of host communities. The United Nations World Tourism Organization (UNWTO) has become a major promoter of what’s known as sustainable tourism, which gets local stakeholders involved in the decision-making process of the tourism industry through legal and cultural means. Think of it as traveling in a way that protects the planet, promotes social equity, and supports local economies. Have you had an environmentally conscious travel experience?

As the term is often bandied today with an intention to profit, it is important to understand its true nature and context.

Sustainable Tourism for Development, we welcome the continued development of tourism and recall that with growth comes increased responsibility to ensure tourism can contribute to sustainability in all its three pillars – economic, social and environmental. Growth is never the enemy and it is our responsibility to manage it in a sustainable manner. #nepal #tourism

🚨 We've all seen the headlines: overcrowded streets in Venice, chaotic scenes in Barcelona. The urgent need for sustainable travel has never been clearer. 🌍 In our latest blog post, "Is Tourism Killing Tourism? Why We ALL Must Rethink Travel Now," Tourism Cares' Chief Impact Officer, Paula Vlamings, dives into the urgency of rethinking our travel habits and prioritizing responsible tourism. 🌿 Many destinations are already taking action, from restricting cruise ships in Amsterdam to limiting crowds and increasing tourist taxes in Aruba and the Galapagos Islands. While every action counts, the travel industry as a whole must step up now, take more immediate action, and rethink how we conduct business, market destinations, and serve our communities. These fragile places cannot accommodate these pressures. Check out the full blog and additional resources here: https://hubs.ly/Q02HCnK70.
