The Cross-Border Tourism Sustainability Strategy between Spain and Portugal 2022-2024, published in 2022, focuses on the sustainable development of cross-border tourism between Spain and Portugal. It aims to leverage the unique cultural, historical, and natural resources of the border regions to create a competitive and sustainable tourism destination. In doing so, it hopes to turn tourism into a force for sustainable development in the oldest and largest border region in the European Union.
The document analyzes the current state of tourism in the border regions, highlighting challenges such as depopulation and economic decline in rural areas. Its main objectives include promoting year-round tourism across the entire border region, supporting investment and business development, and enhancing the skills and qualifications of human resources in the tourism sector.
Overall, the goal of the strategy is to make the Iberian Peninsula one of the most competitive and sustainable travel destinations in the world.
