The Action Plan 2023-2024 outlines strategic initiatives to advance Austria’s tourism sector, building on the foundations laid by the “Plan T.” This document focuses on transforming tourism practices to address contemporary challenges and capitalize on emerging opportunities. It emphasizes enhancing public awareness of tourism by providing objective data, developing sustainability metrics, and gauging public attitudes towards tourism's impact on quality of life. Additionally, it seeks to foster collaboration among stakeholders, including government bodies and industry partners, to tackle issues related to sustainable mobility, energy resilience, digitalization, and marketing. The plan also aims to create a robust framework for tourism by hosting regular political exchanges and establishing a prominent industry event, the “Austrian Tourism Days.”
Incorporating technological advancements, the action plan highlights the importance of leveraging digital tools and data. It proposes the development of a "Data Space Tourism" for efficient data management and privacy protection, the establishment of a digital accommodation registry, and the implementation of an electronic guest registration system to streamline bureaucratic processes. Furthermore, the plan focuses on enhancing digital skills within the tourism sector to improve service delivery and operational efficiency. Through these targeted actions, Austria aims to solidify its status as a leading sustainable tourism destination and ensure the sector's long-term success.
