“Good Tourism” and “GT” Travel news and good news in travel & tourism …

Free­dom of move­ment is a basic human right. And travel & tour­ism is everyone’s busi­ness. “Every­one” includes not only people who earn a liv­ing from the travel & tour­ism industry, but also people who travel, and people who live in places that are trav­elled to and through.

EVERYONE.

That’s why “GT” reck­ons you should get into the habit of read­ing these posts and shar­ing them with your col­leagues and friends. And then dive deep­er into “Good Tour­ism” Insights for ideas on how to make respons­ible travel & sus­tain­able tour­ism bet­ter … for you, for your people, and for your place. For they are your people. And it is your place.

The “Good Tour­ism” Blo­g’s “Good news in travel & tour­ism” posts sum­mar­ise the most recent month or two of “GT” Insights, “GT” Part­ner news, and “GT” Travel posts. “GT” retired its weekly “Good news in tour­ism” posts in April 2021.
