<\/span>UNESCO\u2019s Funds-in-Trust Project named \u201cGood Tourism\u201d was launched in Yanoda, a Rainforest Cultural Tourism Zone in Hainan province, China on December 3, 2011.<\/p>\n

\u201cInspired by the \u2018Rise of Good Tourism\u2019 session during the PATA 60th Anniversary & Conference, UNESCO has initiated the project on \u201cGood Tourism\u201d in China to advocate for mutually supportive and beneficial interaction among travellers, tourism policy-makers, entrepreneurs, tourism operators, managers, scenic spots and local communities in China. The aim is to pursue the sustainable development of tourism,\u201d said Beatrice Kaldun, Programme Specialist for Culture in the UNESCO Beijing office.<\/p>\n

\u2018Good Tourism\u2019 was first introduced at the PATA 60th Anniversary & Conference in Beijing, April 2011. It is a new balancing concept following \u2018eco-tourism\u2019, \u2019green tourism\u2019, \u2018low-carbon tourism\u2019 and \u2018responsible tourism\u2019.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are grateful for UNESCO\u2019s initiative to promote the PATA concept of \u2018Good Tourism\u2019 in China,\u201d said Martin Craigs, PATA CEO. \u201cThe days of labelling tourism based on its particular contribution, i.e. environment, community or local heritage are receding. PATA believes that tomorrow\u2019s industry should instead aspire to \u2018Good Tourism\u2019 – that is tourism which is both balanced and sustainable and delivers a range of different benefits,\u201d said Craigs.<\/p>\n

UNESCO will collaborate with tourism authorities and industry players, researchers and consumers in China to debate the concept. The aim is to form guidelines for tourism industry stakeholders, including travellers.<\/p>\n

The Good Tourism Project implementation will take two years. Hainan Provincial Tourism Development Commission will provide necessary support. The Yanoda Rain Forest Cultural Tourism Zone will become the first research site for the Good Tourism project and offer funds and necessary support for project implementation. The project outputs will be disseminated in China and other parts of the world.<\/p>\n

PATA member, Prof. Walter Jamieson of Thammasat University in Bangkok and Prof. Zou Tongqian, Dean of the Tourism School at Beijing International Studies University, will drive the project. PATA Regional Director – Greater China, Kate Chang, attended the launch ceremony and introduced PATA and its Good Tourism related initiatives in China.<\/p>\n
