Transforming Our World on World Tourism Day

Today is World Tourism Day, which allows for a unique opportunity to highlight the economic, social and environmental contribution of Travel & Tourism to sustainable development around the world.


In this spirit, World Travel & Tourism Council (WTTC) has launched a new campaign called 'Transforming Our World' which provides an insight into the stories of people that operate in Travel & Tourism and shows how the sector has transformed their world or how they use tourism to transform other people's worlds.


The campaign stories, which come from WTTC's Tourism for Tomorrow programme, cover the transformational stories of people in all corners of the world - including Botswana, China, India, Indonesia, Ireland, Kenya, Mexico, and USA – and cut across education, community, nature, wildlife, and much more. Watch their stories here.


Do you have a story of how tourism has transformed your life? Or have you had a transformational experience while travelling? Perhaps a career opportunity in tourism that changed the direction of your life? You can submit your own story or if you're a tourism business, you could be eligible to apply for the Tourism for Tomorrow Awards.
