#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):

  

The 10 quotes below are updated every few minutes and elephant word-clouds are recalculated regularly based on your new survey entries. You have to refresh the page or revisit us every so often to see the changed content.

CONCERNS

Hotel and hospitality businesses do not have the cash flow to continue before the pandemic is over. I expect many to go out of business. This is terrible for existing stakeholders and may potentially be opportunity for newcomers. (April, 2020)

TOURISM MEANS

The thing I love the most about travelling is how it changes your perspective on life. Every place, every person and every experience changes you a little bit and affects the way you look at yourself and at others. It is probably one of the best and most effective ways to learn more about yourself and where you come from. (June, 2020)

CHALLENGES

For me as a person who travels a lot, it feels like I’m missing a part of freedom. Also, I am doing a lot of sports and it is not very motivating, if it’s unsure if the event in some other country will take place, and if yes, if I can travel their without going in quarantine or without any travel restrictions.

IDEAS

Country should provide more support for all tourism related companies in this times.

Tourism should open only when the science could confirm we are ready till that time support for tourism industry from countrys - in this time I think it is more important to wait and not to make long time damage if we open tourism too soon. (April, 2020)

Tourist vouchers should also be redeemable in travel agencies, restaurants, museums and national parks. Now some providers are earning a lot, while others are in red numbers.. (August, 2020)
