Towards Resilient Tourism: A Deep Dive into the EU's Transition Pathways
Following geopolitical instability affecting the EU tourism industry, the European Commission and relevant stakeholders decided to co-create a “Transition Pathways for Tourism” strategy. With this, the aim is to support the green and digital transition of the tourism ecosystem and ultimately, increase the sector’s resilience.
