#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.

OTHER / SPOTTED

I am really curios about how the Covid-19 pandemic will change our world and our society. I think we can learn a lot of things from the crisis and reorient new. But I am also concerned about how the world will change and which developments are going to happen in the future. I hope people think careful and learn from the crisis. (June, 2020)

TOURISM MEANS

A way to grow, explore, learn. A way to observe the ways others do things or on the other hand why or what is different and why. It has always been the best means of growth for me. (April, 2020)

CONCERNS

I have two points: one is that because of the drecreasing economic, it will be very difficult to find a job after I finish university next year. The other one is that we want to rebuild our economic as fast as possible and substainability will be forgotten. Anf of course the health of my family. (October, 2020)

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)

EXPLOITATION

Not do much an exploitation as such, but discounting I see amongst hotels in Japan will not save the industry as it causes the Prisoner's Dilemma. Everyone could suffer as a result. (April, 2020)
