#TourismFromZero initiative

Latest news:

The 2020 pandemic and previous years’ overtourism issues showed us both the benefits, the relevance, and the limits of the tourism, hospitality and leisure industries for society. We cannot foresee the future, but we can listen to challenges and start developing solutions. 

So far we have received more than 900 responses in which these questions have been discussed::

  1. How should we IMAGINE tourism now that we have an opportunity to reset the way we do business?
  2. Which CHANGES would you like to see? If any?
  3. What are your CHALLENGES and CONCERNS?
  4. What are your IDEAS and SOLUTIONS to make it through the pandemic AND into a sustainable and innovative future of tourism?

In the name of the global tourism family, many thanks to every single one of you for the inspiring feedback. Your replies are summarized in the sections below.

Don't forget to share YOUR insights (for the first time or again, with new observations):

IDEAS

Take this time to learn, tourism is so important industry and it has countries running only from tourism. Is that what we really want? That is definitely not sustainable way of running a country. Also. Here in Iceland..... tourism companies are lowering their prices, that means FINALLY icelanders can travel in their own country. It was so extreamly expenisve to travel in my own country that I could rather just go to another country and that would have been cheaper. Just think about it. It is crazy that local people can't afford traveling in their own county, right? (April, 2020)
