But the prospects of success are good are routinely prepared and concluded and individual because where else other than at a trade fair do you find so innovations are presented, but they also always serve as many leading thinkers from a particular sector gathered forums for the longer-term development of a sector. But together at the same time? previously this has tended to be on a rather unofficial basis, with discussions taking place on the fringes or in press briefings. But trade fairs can also perform this role on a quasi-official basis by organisers working with exhibitor and visitor representatives to set the agenda for the sector, by defining the motto for an event, with accompanying conventions on the long-term development of the sector, its position within society or the way it is perceived politically. 7 AUMA_Review_2017_AUMA_Bilanz 15.08.18 15:26 Seite 8 REVIEW 2017 Outlook PROTECTIONISM NOT YET A THREAT q International trade fairs would hardly exist without largely free trade; but tariffs on a limited scale will not unsettle the exhibition world. Tariffs, which often have more of a symbolic significance, have been and are in fact frequently accepted as part of trade agreements between states and have so far not had any appreciable negative impact on the international exhibition industry. To this extent, current threats to impose tariffs will also not immediately threaten the exhibition business. Ultimately, this is about price increases and not boycotts, and not every price increase, particularly in the case of quality products, results in demand for products falling. A certain calmness within the trade fair industry when it comes to protectionism is therefore certainly sensible. However, the fundamental rule is that barriers to trade of any kind cause uncertainty in the markets and therefore at trade fairs too; they should therefore be removed rather than put up. AUMA will very clearly advocate this approach.

This is because the good economy in Germany also improves the opportunities for exporting to Germany. But a key indicator is primarily that the number of German exhibitors has stabilised following slight drops in the levels of participation in recent years, owing partly to mergers and acquisitions among small and medium-sized enterprises. More start-ups or companies that were not previously exhibitors are evidently rediscovering exhibitions as a vehicle for engaging in face-to-face dialogue regarding a tangible product which is essentially presented in front of you. The number of foreign participants rose by around 4% to almost one third of all visitors – this also reflects the attractiveness of German trade fairs. The importance of domestic trade fairs for foreign trade is correspondingly high. 63% of exhibitors at fairs attended by trade visitors state that participation in international trade fairs in Germany is important or very important for their export business. 12 AUMA_Review_2017_AUMA_Bilanz 15.08.18 15:27 Seite 13 REVIEW 2017 Exhibitions in Germany This is one of the results of the representative exhibitor survey AUMA MesseTrend from November 2017. The number of exhibitors from the high-exporting capital goods industry stating this is in fact almost 70%. This means that trade fairs in Germany offer small and medium-sized enterprises in particular an inexpensive route to start establishing international business relationships. 13 AUMA_Review_2017_AUMA_Bilanz 15.08.18 15:27 Seite 14 REVIEW 2017 Exhibitions in Germany REFLECTING ON OWN STRENGTHS q Why is the level of MORE EFFICIENCY THANKS TO DIGITISATION q Exhibition interest in trade fairs still growing despite the high level companies are currently making significant investments in that has already been achieved?

The Trump Administration is carrying out a new form of American rejectionism powered by four horsemen of economic instability: first, the rejection of the international rule of law; second, the rejection of open markets; third, the rejection of economic peace in favour of perpetual economic war; and fourth, the rejection of the global interest. The analysis herein shows how these four rejectionist policies are harming the United States, other countries, and the global order.

Why the International Exhibitions Bureau Should Choose Minneapolis for Global Expo 2023 Steve Charnovitz* Next month in mid-November 2017, the International Exhibitions Bureau (BIE) will award one country the opportunity to host a specialized global expo in the years 2022–23. Of the three contenders, the United States (U.S.) proposal to hold an Expo in Minneapolis, Minnesota merits selection over the two other alternatives of Poland and Argentina. The proposed theme of the Minneapolis fair of "Healthy People, Healthy Planet" is a well-chosen topic to draw and educate participants from around the world. The BIE originated in the Convention Relating to International Exhibitions of 1928 (done in Paris).1 The early 20th century was a time of formation of many international organizations, and the Convention set up a regulatory system for world's fairs and expos to supervise the conduct and selection of international exhibitions.

Recognizing the Forum for East Asia – Latin America Cooperation (FEALAC) as a unique intergovernmental multilateral consultation space between the countries of East Asia and Latin America, which, since its creation in September 1999, FEALAC has encouraged new partnerships, and new opportunities for intercontinental cooperation. We, the Foreign Ministers and Heads of Delegations of the member countries of the Forum for East Asia-Latin America Cooperation (FEALAC), met in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic on 09 November 2019, with a view to strengthen the relationship between the two regions. 2. The 9th FEALAC Foreign Ministers‟ Meeting was held under the co-chair of the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Lao People‟s Democratic Republic, as the FEALAC Regional Coordinator for East Asia, and the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Dominican Republic, as FEALAC Regional Coordinator for Latin America. 3. We recognize the importance of the New FEALAC Action Plan to increase the effectiveness of FEALAC and the need to progressively review all activities that derive from them, in order to meet the development needs of the member countries. 4. Recalling the achievements of the eight previous Foreign Ministers‟ Meetings and recognizing the substantive discussion at the 9th FEALAC Foreign Ministers‟ Meeting, we adopt this Santo Domingo Declaration. 5. Therefore, in accordance with the priorities of member countries, in relation to the proposed measures and activities contained in the New FEALAC Action Plan, we decided to refer to the following aspects: 9th FMM/2019 Revision and update of the "New FEALAC Action Plan" 6.

  • Socio-Political Motivation of Experiential Travel Education in the 18Th, 19Th and 20Th Centuries: the Grand Tour, World’S Fairs and Birthright Israel
    Socio-political Motivation of Experiential Travel Education in the 18th, 19th and 20th Centuries: The Grand Tour, World’s Fairs and Birthright Israel Edward Porges A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Education University of Washington 2017 Reading Committee: Joy Williamson-Lott, Chair Maresi Nerad Ralina L. Joseph Walter Parker Program Authorized to Offer Degree: College of Education ©Copyright 2017 Edward Porges University of Washington Abstract Socio-political Motivation of Experiential Travel Education in the 18th, 19th and 20th Centuries: The Grand Tour, World’s Fairs and Birthright Israel Edward Porges Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Professor Joy Williamson-Lott College of Education The purpose of this study is to illustrate that travel as experiential education, though not always obvious, often has political or cultural intent or ramifications. Objectives such as promoting cosmopolitanism, nationalism and imperialism, and colonialism may then become obvious by examination of various experiential education travel programs, past and present. This thesis will examine three examples of travel-oriented experiential education with political and social objectives from three different centuries: The Grand Tour of the 18th century, World’s Fairs of the 19th century, and Birthright Israel in the 20th and 21st centuries. These examples were chosen for study to emphasize that 1) travel, despite recently being recognized as such, is a form of experiential education that goes back at least three centuries; 2) experiential travel education perceived to be a cultural or fun experience may have a socio-political agenda as well; 3) experiential travel education can be focused upon different constituencies, from a single person to a small, specific group to the public masses; 4) the Grand Tour, World’s Fairs and Birthright Israel change in terms of their original educational mission.
