The largest and oldest discussion of tourism industry members in 127 countries is going strong. On March 5, the World Tourism Network will commemorate one year since the first global discussion on the rebuilding of the travel and tourism industry. “We are all in this together,” said Juergen Steinmetz, founder and chairman of WTN. “Therefore, every member of the extended travel and tourism industry should be part of this discussion. We are rebuilding this industry.”
At the March 5 meeting, eTurboNews invited a group of tourism professionals to the Grand Hyatt Hotel in Berlin to discuss the best response of the travel and tourism industry on the new Coronavirus threat. The event was coordinated with PATA, the African Tourism Board, and the Global Tourism Resilience and Crisis Management Center mid-February 2020, but days before ITB Berlin 2020 was cancelled .
The meeting took place and was the first global discussion on a response to COVID19 from tourism by the global travel and tourism industry .
Rebuilding.travel launched and over the next 6 months grew to have members in more than 100 countries. In December 2020, rebuilding.travel was structured and the World Tourism Network (WTN) was formed.
