Future Trends in Tourism
OFFICE OF TECHNOLOGY ASSESSMENT AT THE GERMAN BUNDESTAG Thomas Petermann Christoph Revermann Constanze Scherz Future trends in tourism Summary May 2005 Working report no. 101 SUMMARY Demographic, sociostructural and sociocultural developments have always led to changes in tourist demand and faced service providers in tourism with sub- stantial need to adjust. These constant challenges have expanded and intensified considerably in the first few years of the new millennium. War and tourism, extreme weather, the ongoing internationalisation of tourism and the ageing of society (increasingly prominent in public awareness) have emphatically demon- strated the latent vulnerability of tourism as a boom industry. The survival of the tourist industry depends decisively on recognising relevant trends and allowing for them in good time. In this context, TAB – at the initiative of the party working groups on the Com- mittee for Tourism – was commissioned by the Committee for Education, Re- search and Technology Assessment to carry out a TA project »Future trends in tourism«. Its focus was the themes »demographic change«, »EU expansion« and »security, crises and dangers«. The present report > identifies the relevant trends and their implications for tourism in Germany and by Germans, on the basis of a review and an analysis of current sociodemogra- phic data; > looks at the impacts of the eastward expansion of the EU and considers what trends in vacation traffic can be expected in and from the new EU nations and to and from Germany; > describes current and future potential dangers to tourism and discusses possibi- lities for improving information, prevention and crisis management. DEMOGRAPHICS The tourist industry is more than almost any other industry linked to its social and natural contexts. -

Inbound and Outbound Tourism Performance: 2017
Inbound and Outbound Tourism Performance: 2017 1. Inbound Tourism Performance According to the World Tourism Organisation (2017), the demand for international tourism remained strong during the Northern Hemisphere summer peak season. International tourist arrivals in July and August grew by over 300 million for the first time ever as reported in the issue of the UNWTO World Tourism Barometer. Between January and August 2017, destinations worldwide welcomed 901 million international tourist arrivals when compared to the previous year there was 56 million more tourists travelling internationally with 7% growth. These statistics illustrate positive outcomes for the rest of the remaining months of 2017 and is the eight consecutive year of continued solid growth for international tourism. The United National World Tourism Organisation regions illustrate the strongest growth in Africa (+9%) and Europe (+8%), followed by Asia and the Pacific (+6%), the Middle East (+5%) and the Americas (+3%). This strong performance is confirmed by experts from around the world and the last four months of 2017 remain also resilient according to the experts. The UNWTO Secretary General Taleb Rifai stated that “Tourism is a major economic engine and employment generator, contributing to the improvement of livelihoods of millions of people around the world” 1.1 Regional Results In Europe international arrivals grew by 8% and recovered in both Southern and Mediterranean Europe by 12% and Western Europe by 7% following a weak 2016. Tourist arrivals grew by 6% in Northern Europe and by 4% in Central and Eastern Europe between January and August 2017. International arrivals to Africa grew positively by 9% recording the fastest growth among all five regions, due strong rebound in North Africa (+15%) and sound results of Sub-Saharan Africa (+5%). -
Trends & Statistics 2017
The Case for Responsible Travel: Center for Responsible Travel Transforming the Way the World Travels Trends & Statistics 2017 ***Special edition in recognition of the UN’s International Year of Sustainable Tourism for Development The United Nations designated 2017 as the International Year of Sustainable Tourism for Development, recognizing, in its resolution, “the important role of sustainable tourism as a positive instrument towards the eradication of poverty, the protection of the environment, the improvement of quality of life and the economic empowerment of women and youth and its contribution to… sustainable development, especially in developing countries.”1 This International Year (IY2017, as it is known) comes 15 years after the UN’s designation of the International Year of Ecotourism in 2002. Responsible travel has come a long way, from its original roots in small-scale, nature- and culture-based ecotourism. Today sustainability – environmental, social, and economic – is increasingly recognized as the benchmark for all tourism business, of all sizes, in all destinations, and across all sectors of the industry. In addition, the UN’s 2017 International Year clearly recognizes that sustainable tourism is an important tool for development, most importantly in poor communities and countries. As noted by the UN World Tourism Organization, 57% of international tourist arrivals in 2030 will be in emerging economies.2 And in 2017 and 2018, emerging and developing economies are forecast to grow 4.5 and 4.8% respectively, outpacing the -

Tourism is one of the most dynamic sectors in Europe. It enjoys high growth potential and accounts for a considerable proportion of employment; a high level mobility of labour, jobs and services in tourism throughout Europe makes it possible to speak about the truly European character of the sector. Good prospects, however, may be hindered by exogenous ef- fects and by lack of reaction to changing skills requirements; em- ployers in the sector often complain about skill deficiencies among the workforce. Many tasks and activities in the sector are also chan- ging in line with technological, economic and social change, with new and hybrid occupations appearing, demanding completely new sets of skills. -

All continents registered an increase in outbound travel in 2007. Asia recorded the highest increase (+10%), followed by America (+7%) and Africa (5%). Yet also Europe, already having a high outbound travel intensity, recorded an increase of +5%. 2 European Travel Trends In 2007, the Europeans took a total of 407 million The most dynamic European source market with outbound trips (+5% over the previous year), 16% more trips in 2007 was Russia, followed by thereby spending 3.9 billion nights abroad (+5%).
