An increasingly large segment of the global population travels the world as tourists - adding to local economic development of the communities they visit, but also putting immense stress on their natural environments and resources. In this session, you will dive deep into the future of tourism and travel, with a view to their economical, social and ecological impact. Learn about the forces shaping the tourism landscape in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, Croatia, and beyond, and debate meaningful ways to realign travel with the needs of planetary ecosystems.

ABOUT THE ST. GALLEN SYMPOSIUM
The St. Gallen Symposium is the world’s leading initiative for intergenerational debates on economic, political and social developments. The symposium takes place annually in May at the University of St.Gallen, Switzerland.
The St. Gallen Symposium is annually organised by the International Students’ Committee (ISC), an independent student initiative at the University of St.Gallen. For ten months, a team of approximately 30 students voluntarily engages in the challenging task of organising an outstanding St. Gallen Symposium. During the symposium week, the ISC Team is supported by about 450 student volunteers. Three members of last year’s team are taking up the role of Head of the Organising Committee.
