Frequently Asked Questions about Tourism

What is tourism ‎.

Tourism refers to the business of traveling for work or for fun. The industry encompasses a range of sectors, such as transportation, hotel management, food and beverage, financial services, and entertainment.

Top tourist destinations around the world include France, Spain, the United States, China, Italy, and Turkey. ‎

What is sustainable tourism? ‎

Sustainable tourism is a specific type of travel that focuses on protecting and respecting the culture and environment of a destination while visitors explore it. It contrasts with mass tourism that solely aims to make money.

Tourism jobs include a wide range of occupations, such as hotel manager, travel agent, restaurant server, flight attendant, and tour guide. You may work at an airline, a hotel, a cruise ship, a casino, a tour company, or a retail store. Hotels and cruise ships often hire massage therapists, fitness instructors, bartenders, and housekeepers to work in their facilities. Companies like travel agencies, airlines, and hotels also have office staff who specialize in revenue management and human resources. ‎

What kind of people are best suited for roles in tourism? ‎

Individuals best suited for roles in tourism enjoy working with people and like finding ways to meet their needs. Even with the rise of technology within the industry, being able to empathize with people is important, as is the ability to work well on a team and pay attention to detail. Working in this industry requires strong problem-solving and communication skills as well as the ability to work in high-pressure situations. ‎

UN Tourism | Bringing the world closer

In 2019, the One Planet Sustainable Tourism Programme is starting, with support the French Government, UN Environment and UNWTO, a cycle of online trainings to support tourism practitioners in integrating sustainable consumption and production patterns in their everyday operations. These trainings offer network members (and beyond) the opportunity to access free of charge short courses on the use of open tools and methodologies designed to advance the resource efficiency of tourism operations and will put a strong accent on the use of measurement and monitoring frameworks to better understand the environmental and social outcomes of SCP. 

Online training 1. How to map tourism value chains & identify key actions

The first training of the cycle is organized in partnership with the UN Environment, WRAP and 3Keel within the frame of the “Promoting resource efficient and low-carbon development through transforming tourism value chains in developing countries and SIDS” project, which is funded by the German government’s International Climate Change Initiative.

Objectives of the training are to: 

• Understand value chains and hotspots analysis concepts 
• Learn how to map tourism value chains to identify and respond to environmental impact
• Become able to identify actions to address key environmental concerns, protect tourism assets and improve the resilience of the tourism sector
• Learn how to build a business case and workplan to address priority hotspots
• Explore policy frameworks to support tourism value chain actions

This one hour and half online training will help participants to better understand how to map the tourism value chain at a national, destination or business-level, in order to collaborate with value chain partners to improve the efficiency with which resources are used, reduce waste and greenhouse gas emissions and put tourism on a low carbon development path.

The value chain mapping approach included in this training has been developed and refined based on work undertaken in four countries where the tourism sector represents a significant proportion of national GDP, as part of the UN Environment “Transforming Tourism Value Chains” project, which is funded by the German government’s International Climate Change Initiative.

Mapping and managing the tourism value chain is all about extending your line of sight and influence beyond the traditional areas of focus on immediate supply chain partners, to take a more comprehensive look at the entire commodity, product or service chain. Map looks both upstream to primary producers and raw materials, intermediate suppliers and service providers; and downstream to consumers and end of life management (e.g. how to reuse, refurbish or recycle products used in the tourism sector or managing the waste streams arising from tourism activities responsibly and sustainably). The aim is to limit risk and add value at each stage of the value chain; and to guide the activities to be taken within the value chain based on the identification of hotspots, threats, opportunities and the creation of new partnerships and collaborations to address or capitalize on them. 

Where possible, a map should be multi-faceted, containing operational, economic, environmental and social information.

Trainer: 

The training will be conducted by Mark Barthel , a partner at UK-based sustainability and resilience practice, 3Keel, with over 25 years of experience of working on sustainability issues at the international, national, sector and business-level. During his career he has advised a range of different organizations from UN agencies, the European Commission and UK government departments; to major international brands and well-known international NGOs.

Moderator: 

The training session will be moderated by Sandra Averous-Monnery , Programme Officer within the  Consumption and Production Unit of the Economy Division, UN Environment. With 12 years of experience in UN Environment, mostly on sustainable consumption and production, she is responsible for eco-innovation, circular economy and global value chains work, and contributes to the project on “transforming tourism value chain”.

Why Become a Certified Destination?

Being certified sustainable by a Certification Body that is Accredited means that your destination complies with the highest social and environmental standards on the market. As public concern grows about the harmful effects and the positive impacts of travel and tourism, certification provides you with a credible solution to complex environmental and social issues.

Travel providers should proudly display information regarding their certificate and the certifying body that issued it. Doing so informs your stakeholders — from customers to ownership and to your supply chain — that your business is operated with sound management that looks to the future and not merely at today.

DOT OFFERS ONLINE “ENHANCED OPPORTUNITY” TRAINING FOR TOURISM STAKEHOLDERS

The Department of Tourism (DOT) has launched an online training program for the country’s tourism stakeholders to stay relevant, learn to cope with the difficulties arising from the global pandemic novel coronavirus or COVID–19, and to facilitate transition to recovery.

DOT Secretary Bernadette Romulo–Puyat said the program dubbed DOT Online Training is done via Zoom video–conferencing and offers the stakeholders an option to use their time productively during the enhanced community quarantine (ECQ), which has been extended to April 30.

“The DOT is developing online courses for tourism stakeholders. This conceptualized as an alternative to the regular training programs being conducted by the Office of Industry Manpower Development. This our vision in embracing a new normal for our industry,” said Puyat.

The tourism chief added that the course covers two subject areas: 1) Tourism Enterprise which involves monitoring, evaluating and learning from past and present situations to enable tourism stakeholders to prepare better for the future; and 2) Filipino Brand of Service which applies the seven Filipino values or “7Ms” that characterize Filipino hospitality, namely May Likha, Makatao, Makakalikasan, Makabansa, Masayahin, May–Bayanihan and May–Pag–asa.

“We can turn the temporary inactivity during lockdown into an opportunity to enhance the quality of tourist services. We can objectively look back at our past and current performance and utilize the breathing space to plan how we can further upgrade our services in our respective areas in the industry with the values of Filipino hospitality,” said Secretary Puyat.

The DOT Chief enjoined the tourism stakeholders to participate in the online training program, adding that the DOT is set to develop additional modules on other topics.

“The DOT will continue to develop other online courses to enhance skills, assist and encourage stakeholders to cope, transition and move towards recovery”.
