About this Event
Discounts available for students and Cockburn Association Members. The complete speaker/panel list will be circulated in the coming weeks.
Join us for an afternoon of discussions on Edinburgh's tourism industry. Tourism is both a significant part of Edinburgh's economy while also being a contributing factor to issues like the housing crisis. The proper management of tourism is therefore vital and needs to consider the wellbeing of residents, stakeholders, and tourists alike. Tensions resulting from Overtourism are high across Europe, and it is therefore more important than ever that Edinburgh anticipates the need to identify and implement responsible, sustainable strategies for managing its tourism industry.
We will be joined by a number of guests, such as Dr Harold Goodwin, Director of the Responsible Tourism Partnership, Professor John Lennon, former Director of the Moffat Centre of Travel and Tourism Business Development, representatives from the Edinburgh Tourism Action Group and the Edinburgh Living Rent Tennant's Union, City Council officials, and more!
