Equality in Tourism

Letters and Submissions
The United Nations World Tourism Organization (UNWTO) is holding a World Tourism Day Celebration in Bali on 27th September, 2022 with the title, ’Rethinking Tourism’. According to the UNWTO website ‘it aims to inspire the debate around rethinking tourism for development, including through education and jobs, and tourism’s impact on the planet and opportunities to grow more sustainably’, including a discussion on ‘The tourism we want’. ‘Rethinking tourism’ requires a concerted effort to put structural transformation of gender equality in tourism at the top of the agenda.
