Share

Goals:

- The share of the top three months in total overnight stays does not exceed 40%. 
- At least 40% of residents of the art cities indicate that they have a say in ideas about tourism developments in the city.
- 90% of Visit Flanders' contacts in the tourism sector are familiar with the Travel to Tomorrow Vision and 75% of this group agree with the vision.

2.5.1 In our product development and communication, we focus on distributing visitors in time and space via our themes.
2.5.2 We work with partners to monitor and safeguard an area’s liveability. 
2.5.3 We continue to work on expanding support for the Travel to Tomorrow vision and sustainable entrepreneurship in the tourism sector, including through the Travel to Tomorrow Academy.
2.5.4 We look at how we assess liveability within the context of tourism in the ambassador study.
