#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.

I CAN OFFER

Resources that each of us can contribute is humanity. It is important that even in such difficult times as these, no one forgets about the other. And because I am still quite young and fit, I can try to help others who are not doing so well as much as possible with all the possibilities I have. (December, 2020)

EXPLOITATION

Lots of people lose their jobs do to this crisis. Employees have to get rid of a lot of job places because they need to safe money and the people who are still working for this company get less paid than before. Lots of employees in Austria exploited the "Kurzarbeit" because they got money from the government but the workers in this company still worked the same amount of hours than before, but they got less income.

OTHER / SPOTTED

I saw a weird travel website talking about travel to countries that didn't have the coronavirus. All the more reason to NOT go there, I would say. In no time the virus would be there and those countries would soon also go through all the troubles and deaths. (May, 2020)
