Tourism for SDGs – Welcome to the Tourism for SDGs Platform!

Hospitality and travel are critical in delivering sustainable solutions for people, the planet, and prosperity.  Tourism comprises around 10% of GDP, 30% of services exports, and 10% of jobs globally.  It has the potential to contribute, directly or indirectly to all 17 of the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and is a significant driver for realizing them.   The Tourism for SDGs (T4SDG) platform facilitates engagement, sharing, and collaboration between the stakeholders in the industry and travel and tourism destinations.  It encourages better tourism policies, fosters partnership, and improves resource allocation to increase tourism competitiveness and better and more responsible travel.
