#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.

CHALLENGES

Crisis, competition, climate change, how to apply sustainability to a already developed mountain destination. (April, 2020)

CONCERNS

I didn't really had any concerns until now, as I didn't suffer any financial losses from the crisis and also hadn't any private impacts. I was just asking myself questions like how long will the crisis last? What will be the future impacts on the economy and our private life? (October, 2020)

IDEAS

The future of tourism is bright. After this crisis all people will want to do is travel. We need to focus on providing unique quality experiences for the travelers, sustainability and safety of a destination & happiness of the locals. (April, 2020)

I CAN OFFER

Motivation and a great desire to improve tourism. (March, 2020)

I NEED

For tourist right now there is only the option to dream of future trips and looking back at past ones. Many destinations around the world already offer digital content to facilitate this. In the future it will be important to receive information about the immunity of the population and I am sure that less crowded destinations will be more popular in the short run. (April, 2020)

SOLUTIONS

Take care of your employees, customers, and business partners, foster an atmosphere of trust and use the time to foster a growth mindset as well as offer (cross-)trainings, webinars, explore ideas of your employees (May, 2020)
