Description

The Workshop focused on sustainable tourism development in Europe and the implications from EU policies. As tourism is not an EU competence as such, activities concerning tourism are fragmented. DG Enterprise, with its own Tourism Unit, has initiated a still ongoing process on the future of tourism in the EU. At the Tourism Forum 2002 in December in Brussels the draft “European Agenda 21 for tourism” has been presented as a first important outcome.
