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.

  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?

TOURISM MEANS

Tourism means the oportunity to travel and experience different environments, be it social or nature or business, tourism offers a wide range of oportunities to people, also means a concern about impacts that this wide spectrum of activities has. (April, 2020)

CHALLENGES

Due to limitations resulting from the spread of the coronavirus, we made only two trips this year. We had to postpone other trips to next year. Part of the employees are still at home waiting for work. (August, 2020)

CONCERNS

I worry about the little enterprises which don´t get enough help because they are very much in danger and need help (money) - more than anyone else. Without these litte cafés e.g. the destination would not be the same after the crisis... (June, 2020)

IDEAS

In my opinion there should be a possibility during quarantine that you are allowed to spend quarantine in other places - for example rent out an apartment with a terace or garden and stay there for the next month (min. stay atleast 2 weeks) - you are only allowed to stay on your premises and shop for neccesities. That way there still won't be any overcrowded places.

Doing this would help the tourism industry to atleast "stay above water" financially and offer tourists to change their surroundings from time to time. (April, 2020)

EXPLOITATION

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