This initiative, launched under an agreement dated 6 August 2020, aimed to shape regional tourism policies, support the development of Greek tourism, upgrade tourism enterprises, and foster collaboration and networking to better promote tourist destinations.

The summary provides a comprehensive overview of the project, including:

  • Major global and sector-specific trends
  • Current trends across various tourism products
  • Analysis of key international markets
  • A SWOT analysis of Greek tourism
  • Strategic directions for the sector
  • Proposed horizontal actions
  • Projected goals and performance indicators

It also outlines strategic recommendations for advancing Greek tourism, such as enhancing tourism offerings, promoting sustainability, improving infrastructure, embracing digital transformation, strengthening marketing efforts, and upgrading workforce skills.
