International Task Force on Sustainable
Tourism Development agreed on policy recommendations to reinforce
sustainability During the 5th International Meeting of the International Task Force on Sustainable Tourism Development (ITF-STD) in Marrakech, Morocco, its members agreed on a set of policy recommendations to reinforce sustainability parameters in tourism planning and management. The overall aims are to guide tourism stakeholders on the identification of opportunities and their strategies of implementation to improve the economic resilience of the sector, guarantee long-term sustainability of tourism development and engage the tourism industry on key universal concerns such as poverty alleviation and climate change. The recommendations will be presented during preparations for the 18th Session of the UN Commission on Sustainable Development in 2010, where the development of the 10-Year Framework of Programmes (10YFP) on Sustainable Consumption and Production (SCP) will be discussed. It will also be presented at the United Nations World Tourism Organization (UNWTO) General Assembly in October 2009. For further information, please click
