Innovation and digital transformation: Data, technology and digital skills are essential to strengthening resilience, sustainability and competitiveness across the sector. Respect for culture and heritage Our cultural and natural heritage must be safeguarded and celebrated, supporting continuity, creativity and local traditions. Strengthening nature and society Tourism should actively enhance ecosystems and support fair and meaningful livelihoods across the tourism sector.
