Information provided through the Dashboard also aligns with the UN\u2019s 10-Year Framework of Programmes (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.unep.org\/10yfp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">10YFP<\/a>) on Sustainable Consumption and Production.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor example, it is now possible to examine just how much money is spent by Tourism in least-developed countries and how this changes over time,\u201d Professor Becken said. \u201cAt the same time, we can see the amount of carbon emissions generated from air travel to and from each country.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnother interesting data set is on terrorism and the types of attacks that occurred on tourism over time and in different countries.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The new platform is highly flexible and quickly creates the visual reports in response to users\u2019 needs and researchers\u2019 new insights. It also allows for better drilling down into national and destination-focused Dashboards.<\/p>\n<p>The changes to the interface help the Dashboard provide authoritative information and user-friendly access to the most comprehensive data on tourism, allowing commercial and academic decision-makers the means to further improve global tourism practices.<\/p>\n<p>Find out more by visiting the Global
