A closer cooperation between citizens, social partners and public authorities to address the challenge of overtourism
Summary of the content and its utility
Addressing the challenge of overtourism in European cities requires closer cooperation among citizens, social partners, and public authorities. Overtourism, a growing concern, is influenced by factors like residents' changing perceptions, stakeholder ambiguity, and the impact of technology on tourist numbers. Stakeholders often prioritize short-term interests, leading to economic and socio-cultural challenges. Balancing the benefits of tourism with its negative impacts is crucial, emphasizing the need for street-level interventions and community engagement. The Pantour project aims to identify occupations and skills, focusing on sustainable tourism promotion, communication strategies, and building partnerships to manage visitor flows effectively.
