IMPACTOUR ReDiscover Europe Workshop - SPOT

Abstract

Under the auspices of the Portuguese Government, and with full collaboration from the Slovenian Government, H2020 IMPACTOUR Project is proud to announce the ReDiscover Europe Workshop, providing an unique opportunity to discuss the role of sustainable Cultural Tourism in today's Europe in a post-COVID era. Europe has come a long path since Schuman's declaration back in 1950 and, next May 9th, we will celebrate peace and unity across Europe. While all the planet is still struggling to overcome the terrible effects of the COVID-19 crisis, Cultural Tourism is playing a huge palliative role by sharing Europe's rich cultural diversity. The ReDiscover Europe Workshop will provide an unique opportunity to discuss the role of sustainable Cultural Tourism in today's Europe. Besides important keynote presentations the workshop will hold three key panel debates (with catalyst viewpoints from policy makers, scientific researchers, industry and cultural tourism practitioners): – Theme 1: Post-COVID cultural tourism – what have we learned, what might we do differently, an opportunity for Big / SMART Data? – Theme 2: People – accessibility, inclusion / exclusion, market needs – Theme 3: Technology – digital gateways, mobile interactive content / co-curation, dynamic modelling and tourism management
