World Tourism Day was created by the United Nations World Tourism Organization in 1980. The purpose of this day is to raise awareness on the role of tourism within the international community and to demonstrate how it affects social, cultural, political and economic values worldwide.
The current campaign “Accessible Tourism for All” is about the creation of environments that can cater for the needs of all people, whether they are traveling or locals at home, they have a disability, are families with children, or are of an advanced age. At some point in our lives, sooner or later, we all benefit of universal accessibility in tourism.#tourism4all #WTD2016
