#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.

TOURISM MEANS

Tourism for me means travelling to foreign or well-know places, where I can relax and unwind to forget the everyday life. (October, 2020)

CHALLENGES

A lack of communication despite beeing able to spend even more hours than before communicating (May, 2020)

Researcher, academic

Germany

CONCERNS

The struggle many face either because they become so dependent on travelling (for ex. bloggers, vlogers etc) or because of it (people in small places that have no other means to survive, or have forgotten the struggles of life because tourism was the easiest thing to do).

The idea that nothing will be the same "easy" as before.. The idea of adapting, inovation...the idea of not knowing what will happen. (April, 2020)

IDEAS

It would be an idea to buy gift cards for several hotels and tourism regions in whatever country you want to travel. When the crisis is over you can easily redeem your gift card. (December, 2020)

EXPLOITATION

VIPs saying we're all in this together to promote themselves. (April, 2020)

OTHER / SPOTTED

Maybe finding financial solutions or funds for those who are now in existential crisis. I also think everyone who is working in culture sector or any other art branch is fearful of the future situation. I think we should really support those and find a way to make their lives easier. After all, art is what define us, makes us humans. (April, 2020)
