Question: Should we ban cruise ships in all sensitive destinations? Alaska, Santorini, Caribbean, Venice...

Welcome, everyone! There will be time for Q&A at the end of the webinar. We will be asking you to direct your questions to the Q&A, not the chat. Thank you!

excluding a selected group is never the answer

Cruise vs land-based travelers - does the impact comparison include other elements such as solid waste disposal, water stewardship, infrastructure etc?

Hi I’m Danielle Heard Mollel, co-founder of Adumu Safaris, a social impact safari company established to restore land, rights, culture, and economic self-determination to the Indigenous Maasai people and other host communities in East Africa through equitably ecotourism, regional tourism reform, and community conservation.

🙌 hence the need to go beyond GDP and measure happinesss & wellbeing!

Adumusafaris.com Adumuimpact.org

Better metrics needed. Negative externalties of travel ought to be considered. So who's looking at this in relation to cruiseships and other forms of tourism product that has large negative externalities.

Hello from Venice, CA. and The Evolved Travelerwww.evolvedtraveler.comhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/justinsmith4/

Can these presentations be shared ?

Thank you for the discussion today and the opportunity to assess the connections of community, cultures, sustainability and tourism’s economic stability to small business, craft makers, artists, historic sites, and the valuable resources represented through succinct and thoughtful sustainable tourism programs. The relevant approach to inclusive, diverse and represented tourism structures is also elastic to the goals ahead.

Lots of very good points made in this presentation. This is exactly what we aim for here at Kaya Responsible Travel. We work directly with communities and all of our initiatives are community driven to ensure they benefit in the end from the groups and individuals they host.

The model being advocated is very linear and traditional so where are the panellists seeing radical, new, fresh and innovative models of destinations governance and stewardship that the world now requires?

Hello everyone - this is Adiam, a destination marketing consultant from London. Love to connect with everyone: https://www.linkedin.com/in/adiamg/

he model being advocated is very linear and traditional so where are the panellists seeing radical, new, fresh and innovative models of destinations governance and stewardship that the world now requires?

I do hope women were included into the marginalised stakeholder group! Pleased to meet such a wide ranging audience. Tricia from equalityintourism.org

Definitely needed - Innovation

Webinar Recap of Strategies for Reconfiguration of Tourist Destinations in the Era of Covid-19: http://ced.travel/Article/92.html

Good points from Tricia and Terry. This isn't (yet) looking very innovative. Tourism needs radical change.

https://www.iucn.org/sites/dev/files/content/documents/documentation_of_the_planning_and_stakeholder_engagement_tool.pdf

It would be helpful to have a few case studies perhaps - a uniform approach of the type proposed is laudable but the reality on the ground are often more challenging.

This is all great for smaller communities and rural locations. But what about the national level? What about Cities? How are you addressing these challenges? Thanks Garry

There should be more involvement and leadership from communities and local stakeholders on whether a 'council' is necessary and how it will work.

How does this model assign leadership to destination communities? The problem with tourism over the past 30-40 years is that destination communities have been marginalised and often abused. Surely community leadership is what community-centred tourism means?

Hi Sarah! Do you have a question for panelists? Feel free to drop it into the Q&A.

Is this council approach more effective than a nationally co-ordinated approach in say Norway, Slovenia and New Zealand

Fantastic points, @Benjamin Carey, I’m tracking you and have similar perspectives

The presentations by Tricia and Terry are fine but very standard textbook and could be simply transmitted to all F o T Coalition. In this webinar itt would be good to have examples with their positive aspects and difficulties, and how to overcome them.

Thanks very good!!

Hi Emily! So great that you are a today’s panel!

Totally agree @Benjamin Carey and @Eugenio

Awesome presentations. Looking forward to the discussion! Hello Everyone, I am Lukas Weyh, Treasurer of the Alumni of the Master Sustainable Destination Development at the University of Uppsala. Feel free to contact me for collaborations! www.linkedin.com/in/lukas-weyh

I appreciate the participation of the three esteemed stakeholders, but would like to also hear from business owners in the communities (B&Bs, attractions, other community members) on their challenges and experiences in this process.

Welcome, everyone! If you have questions that arise for panelists during this panel, please feel free to drop them in the Q&A.

I agree with Nandi: business interests are sometimes at conflict with residents, especially those not depending on tourism. How are their conflicting agendas sorted out?

Thank you @Chris Doyle. I've been overwhelmed with LinkedIn connection requests, and will reply to everyone in due course. The good news at least is that sustainability is finally top of the tourism agenda, but there's still a way to go to truly put communities at the heart of this recovery. Stay well everyone!

Hi everyone! It's Sara from USI master in International Tourism and Sustainable Development, feel free to get in touch https://www.linkedin.com/in/sara-ottolini-055293183

You could mention 5 main benefits to be achieved by finalising a Sustainable Destination implementation in a destination, tanks!

I feel like this group could learn a lot from the Regenerative Travel conversation, that is not really being referred to at all.

Hey Dominique! We are totally on board with the Regenerative Travel movement and are in fact closely aligned. Destination stewardship contributes to regeneration, of course. :)

Of course Dominique, urgent complement with sustainability actions

Thank you all panellist and organisers for the session - I regret I must go to another meeting now.

Although this is a very basic guide on how to create a destination stewardship council, I think this could also be applied to developing regenerative tourism. The awareness of regenerative tourism is still growing, and many professionals aren't convinced that "regenerative" and "sustainable" are two distinct concepts.

brilliant @Dianille! impressive, responsible approach

And cohesive!

Very important @Ellen

“responsible tourism” is the connective tissue between myriad industries, inspires cooperation and sharing

Hi Vicky! Yes, we will be sharing afterwards. Thanks so much for joining! :)

i hear similarities between Gotenburg and Amsterdam. Covid has given a shift to the discussion around tourism. The declaration of the city to embrace the doughnut economics, is very hopeful. We are holding a festival call Reinvent Tourism https://www.reinventtourism.com, everyone is welcome!

I think the very word “destination” can be problematic. A destination is someone else’s .. well … destination. To manage a community as a “destination” is to risk placing the priorities of the “visitor” over those of the community. This can lead to wrong incentives. This terminology can be a core risk at the heart of the tourism industry.

Boa tarde, from Porto, Portugal. It's a very good presentation, and for me as a museum worker and studiyng the impact of tourism on the cultural heritage for a doctoral thesis it´s really important all this information. Obrigada.

Multnomah Falls is so crowded.

@Diannille - I think your LinkedIn will be topped out - sooo sharp, thanks for sharing!

Agree @Adnan. "Host community"?

….looking for destinations looking to up their CSR/ESG performance via tech4good....

@EllenM - totally agree with you re "regenerative' vs 'sustainable' tourism

Thank you for sharing your insight @Danielle, appreciate it! St. Kitts & Nevis are special places!

@Adnan, that's a great point. When we work with communities, they choose how they want their initiative to be frame. Oftentimes, it's (Place name) Stewardship Council.

These questions I posted in the Q&A, but apparently not being seen: Q: in this new world (post-pandemic) order, should not communities/locals be the centerpiece/driver of most future decision making about their own futures? Vs. the three-section piece we just saw - I don’t believe governments should be driving - they should be supportive of distinct communities needs/hopes/desires/visions about how THEY wish to engage (or not) in tourism, on what terms, when, how, and what behaviors they expect from visitors, etc…

follow on Q to my prior question: as I’m watching this, I sense a “tourism” industry framework in near exclusivity, as the “end all” purpose - as I recommend future destination design and development, I advise that human-centric/society focus on basic human needs first is essential (food, water, health, etc.) - once basic needs are met for thoughtful human development, then leaders like those on this Webinar (public, private, NGOs) can assist communities in understanding how/whether/when tourism can play a purposeful role in effective socio-economic development (and self determination), protection of the environment and cultural assets…I am clear that responsible tourism can assist with the basics, but we often put tourism first…I struggle with this - would love to hear others’ thoughts

@Katarina, I like your reference to "relationship". We often forget that tourism involves PEOPLE (and their heritage), and isn't just PLACES.

@Benjamin @Samantha: Best to put the interests of host community and local residents at the center. And then get tourists to behave as “guests” making them realise that they are “visitor” to a living community. Sadly officials in many locations end up putting the $s from tourism ahead of community interest.

@Adnan, Yes!

Couldn’t agree more. Solid relationships and communication are more important than ever.

Couldn't agree more, Adnan!

@Adnan, Agree! Local residents, local businesses and persons/businesses who live and work in in the community should make the decisions.

Plus, what benefits the locals, will exponentially benefit the visitors. It’s that simple.

Perfectly put, Adnan!

I call that "dynamic synergy". Thank you Diannile

Absolutely @Adan. Tourists need to act like they want tourists to act in THEIR communities - with respect

Thank you Panelists

While we won't be able to get to all questions in the Q&A, if you have additional questions following the webinar you can reach us at staff@responsibletravel.org and info@destinationcenter.org.

And yet “relationship” is not a catch all. As we all know, there are many conflicts contained within any relationship.

Please can you email out the PowerPoint presentations shown today? Great session. Thank you.

It is important to consider that most of us in tourism deliver health, wellbeing, strength and happiness, which are so important in our present. By creating incentives for tourism we will deliver that medicine to society.

@Tony, yes, we can share the presentations afterwards!

Do you have any insights to bring along key community members that don’t acknowledge tourism as a key element in planning/management within a very obvious tourism destination.

Community ownership and involvement is key. But how do we get metrics on this? Check how many of the tourism businesses are owned by locals, and how many are true long term residents of the community, and how much of their returns are re-invested in the community? If you are part of the community (e.g. your kids go to school in the community, and your ancestors buried in the soil) you will have a long term love for the community. And not let it get destroyed for short term gain. Sadly, still some locals will sell their community’s “soul” but at least their conscience will be pricked. And their intentions will be discovered by the community.

Love that question as there is no monolithic “locals”

If anyone wants to discuss the issue of creating a unified vision among diverse stakeholders and what are some techniques to overcoming differences, I'd love to connect on LinkedIn. https://www.linkedin.com/in/ellen-malloway/

@Adnan, These are the kinds of metrics I use in destination management. Unless there is community ownership and leadership, the visitor experience will rarely be authentic or satisfactory, undermining the potential value of tourism as a driver of development.

Agree with that @Benjamin

Thank you @Dominique.

@Benjamin, the “community” also can be fragmented. Sometimes a few benefit. And the rest just witness the growth.

That is almost always true @Adnan

Thanks @Adnan, agree. Can we please connect on LinkedIn? Would be great to compare notes...

....recover incremental public service costs via tourist taxes ?

@Benjamin: Sure. Send link please.

https://www.linkedin.com/in/benjamincarey1/

also addressing the needs of communities within the destination, like the 'business community', 'student community' etc

Thank you. This has been a really interesting session, even if there's still much work to do. We MUST put community at the heart of the tourism recovery. Otherwise the COVID tragedy will have been a missed opportunity for a sustainable future for tourism.

@Benjamin: Exactly right. COVID-19 creates opportunities out of crisis. Going back to the “old” normal is the likely default. BIG mistake.

Agreed, @Benjamin Carey.

Sadly, the majority of the tourism industry failed — especially the mass cruise industry! And to look at their current leadership to “turn honest” is going to be a challenge.

https://www.linkedin.com/in/agustin-landeta-m-1aaa1854/ Happy to have Regenerative and Sustainable Tourism conversations from Chile, to the south!

Any destinations/operators/TMCs/DMOs etc looking to link revenue increase to compliance increase (ie sustainability, accessibility, profitability) via on-premise technology invention then more than wiling to discuss colin@lounger-logger.com

I should have said above that the tourism industry mostly failed because it overlooked the interests of the local communities as it grew. This “original sin” starts with the very regular use of the term “Destination Management” — I.e. managing the destination for the sake of tourists. Lets hope the term “destination” is looked with greater criticism. It would be a start.

I agree but "you can not have your cake and eat it"

Adnan - trying to find you on LInkedin, there are many and it’s not clear which one you are ;) your comments solid, hoping to connect

Agreed @Adnan, when even host community members talk about their 'destination management' it's a pretty sad state that they've been overwhelmed by the industry way, right.

@Christopher: please send LInkedin link

Great session! Happy to help with any brand content marketing, sustainability storytelling, etc. Keep in touch, everyone. https://www.linkedin.com/in/robertbholmes/

@Vicky: you can see the irony ;)

@Adnan, I remember being told by a donor 20 years ago that "community" wasn't on their radar - they just wanted to create investments that could be bought and sold. Fortunately there's been a lot of progress since.

@adnan https://www.linkedin.com/in/chris-doyle-2908a71/
