Share

Some want more, some want less, but all destinations want better tourism. Its benefit should be maximised and shared more widely, and there should be effective mitigation to minimise negative impact. The political and practical obstacles are familiar. What are the pre-conditions for progress?

This webinar aims to illustrate the opportunities arising from a collaborative approach to destination development and governance. Examples range from good practice sharing alliances, projects and pilot programmes to inter-departmental co-ordination and creative public-private sector dialogue.

We will also explore some of the problems: how does ‘tourism policy’ interact with culture and transport, housing and retail, licencing and tax? Where does regulatory competence sit: national, regional or local? How do we build consensus about what good looks like - a destination’s vision for success - and the strategy and support for its implementation.

From funding to fostering good practice, what role can or should the EU play?

Expert panellists will explore these questions and share insights from the perspective of government and DMOs.
 

Registration is now open to all interested tourism professionals and enthusiasts!
