#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

Freedom of traveling our wonderful world. (April, 2020)

Germany

CHALLENGES

Zero income. Cancellations or changing dates to next year, so business is lost to this season (May, 2020)

CONCERNS

At first, of course, I was worried about my health. Nobody knew what was going to happen and therefore they had respect for this pandemic and I hoped that nobody from my circle of friends and family would get infected. But then I heard from friends who were infected that it was not bad for them at all and the flu was often stronger. From then on I was more worried about the economy and how to get out of this lockdown as debt-free as possible (June, 2020)

IDEAS

The chance to give goods a ninth value. Maybe this is our chance to redefine pricing and for example make flights more expensive, trains cheaper, services more valuable to make the job more attractive, travel as a luxury again and not as a matter of course. (April, 2020)

I CAN OFFER

As a second year MBA student at Kyoto University, I would be happy to help gather information and resources available. (April, 2020)

I NEED

I am good for now beacause of state financial aid for tourist bussineses. (October, 2020)

Student

SOLUTIONS

Creating new programs and business solutions for small owners that need an extra boost. Sort of a platform for revitalization, shift, changing mind patterns of business owners and transforming them into new stories adapting the situations. (March, 2020)

EXPLOITATION

Assistance with tourist vouchers only to accommodation facility. Travel agencies were largely excluded because hoteliers do not confirm shared reservations. (July, 2020)

OTHER / SPOTTED

I really like the idea. But I am afraid the world is too greedy to make any honest changes in any other direction than making money/profit. (May, 2020)
