Policy Guidance to Support Climate Action by National Tourism Administrations

This policy guidance has been primarly developed to support public sector policy-makers who work on issues related to tourism. The tourism policy domain is inherently comprehensive and cross-cutting, but increasingly considerations of sustainability – and more specifically climate change – are becoming centrally relevant to tourism decisions. It is therefore important that those tasked with tourism policy understand the international and national climate change policy context, as well as consider opportunities for the tourism sector to contribute to climate action.
