COVID19 pandemic and tourism:
the recovery of the destination Italy and its role in the Mediterranean area
Tuesday, July 14, 2020, 4:00 p.m.
The event is open to the public
MEDITERRANEAN POLICY WORKSHOP (MPW) is an idea of the Institute for Studies on the Mediterranean of the National Research Council (CNR-ISMed) that was born during the pandemic. With a deep knowledge of the Mediterranean in its socio-economic, historical, cultural, political dynamics, the CNR-ISMed with these workshops aims to promote dialogue between policy makers, academia, research and business, but above all aims to provide policy makers with concrete support aimed at identifying sustainable solutions to overcome the crisis. Towards new Mediterranean policies, aimed at growth and integration.
The second meeting of the cycle, dedicated to tourism and organized with the collaboration of the Italian Society of Tourism Sciences (SISTUR) aims to identify, together with authoritative speakers and distinguished guests, possible strategies for the relaunch of the destination Italy and its role in the Mediterranean, for the development of local areas and the economy of our country.
Starting from the post-Covid19 scenarios on the trend of tourism flows and how the travel needs of tourists are changing, we will discuss how to put into practice the guidelines provided by UNWTO, the revitalization actions planned by the Government and regional policies, also emphasizing the strategic role of cohesion policies and instruments adopted by the European Commission.
