In September 2024, the European Travel Commission published a report detailing the various crises that have impacted Europe’s tourism sector. The report highlights key lessons from past and potential crises and shares best practices from Europe and beyond. It aims to equip National Tourism Organisations (NTOs) with effective crisis management tools, including a comprehensive Crisis Management Checklist to help NTOs prepare for, manage, and recover from crises, ensuring the sector’s resilience.
