Tourism, pandemics and climate change. Conflicts and challenges’. The Chair’s course has analysed the challenges of tourism

The Valencia University team of the Inter-University Chair of New Green Transition organised and celebrated the course Tourism, pandemics and climate change. Conflicts and challenges this 16 July. Aurora Pedro, Director of the Chair at the UV, took part in the course. 

 

The subject that was discussed is of great interest especially at the present time, as the pandemic has undoubtedly affected the tourism sector, and climate change, now displaced to a second place, has done nothing but advance. This is a challenge that cannot be ignored.

 

The speakers included the executive director of the UNWTO Academy of the World Tourism Organization, the head of the Tourism Sustainability Area of the Visit Valencia Foundation, the president of ICOMOS and director of the Cultural Heritage and Tourism Laboratory of the University of Barcelona, the director of Institutional Coordination and the director general of Rehabilitation of the Second Vice-Presidency of the Generalitat Valenciana.
