European tourism is the most visited destination worldwide but its relative share is changing. While Europe currently receives over half of all international tourist arrivals, emerging economies in Asia and Africa are growing more quickly. By 2030, a new world tourism order may emerge with travel becoming more regional and emerging economies investing more in tourism and attracting more visitors. For Europe to continue growing its tourism industry, it will need to capture more visitors from fast growing source markets like China, India, and parts of Africa as traditional markets like Russia and the United Kingdom have shown negative or slow growth recently.

UNWTO Tourism Highlights 2014 . Why Tourism Matters? . Tourism as a long term global sector for development. Main trends 2013-2014 and future. Where do Tourism go towards?
Tourism Malaysia has successfully increased tourist arrivals and tourism revenue over the past decades through strategic marketing and promotion. Arrivals grew from 7.9 million in 1998 to over 24 million in 2011, while revenue increased from RM8.6 billion to RM58.3 billion over the same period. Tourism Malaysia aims to further boost arrivals, length of stay, and domestic tourism through initiatives such as the "Cuti-Cuti 1Malaysia" campaign. It utilizes an integrated marketing approach including global, regional, and local campaigns on both traditional and new digital platforms such as search, online banners, ad networks and social media like Facebook.
1) Foreign direct investment and foreign institutional investment are both types of cross-border investment but differ in nature. While FDI involves direct ownership in a business located in another country, FII refers to foreign investment in the stock markets of another country.
2) FDI provides greater control rights and is a longer term commitment, whereas FII is more short-term in nature and does not provide control over operations.
3) Both FDI and FII can provide benefits like increased capital flows and investment, but FII is more prone to being "hot money" that leaves quickly.
The document discusses tourism in various countries around the world including Pakistan.

The document provides an overview of the Turkish business environment and retail sector. Key points include:
1) Turkey has a young population, strong economic growth, and strategic location between Europe and Asia, making it an attractive market for investment.
2) The retail sector has traditionally been composed of small shops but is becoming more modern, with supermarket sales growing rapidly in recent decades.
3) The retail sector is expected to continue expanding significantly due to Turkey's growing economy and consumer base.
The world is experiencing strong growth that is fueling a new global super-cycle of economic expansion. Global GDP has more than doubled since 1990 and is projected to continue growing significantly through 2030, driven primarily by emerging markets like China, India, and others in Asia. This growth is shifting the balance of economic power away from advanced economies toward emerging markets, with China on track to become the largest economy by 2030. The super-cycle is supported by rising populations, growing middle classes, increasing urbanization and trade flows, especially within Asia, setting the stage for sustained global growth.

41. Why now?
An opportunity for UNWTO to strengthen
UN’s global message on LGBT rights
“We reject discrimination in general, and
in particular discrimination based on
sexual orientation and gender identity.
We have a collective responsibility to
combat discrimination and to defend our
fundamental principles”
Ban Ki-moon, UN Secretary General
World Human Rights Day 10 Dec 2010
45. LGBT equality and tourism
“Human rights are gay
rights, and gay rights are human
rights”
US Secretary of State Hillary R. Clinton, 6 December 2011, Geneva
49. Understand the market
“Make no mistake. Gay
households are
experiencing real changes
and some hardships in their Bob Witeck, CEO Witeck
Communications
household budgets, plans
and travel expectations”
54. Continuing the conversation…
Questions to consider as we move forward:
- What’s the recipe for success for a destination?
- How can successful LGBT marketing work at national level?
- How can LGBT tourism make a positive impact on
destinations beyond simply spending money?
- How can gay friendly businesses help to influence political
climate towards LGBT people in non-friendly destinations?

The UNWTO is the United Nations’ specialized agency in the field of tourism. The organization originally started at the beginning of the last century in Switzerland as a group of travel agencies and other organizations from the private sector. In 1975 it was officially located in Madrid and expanded until in 2003 when it gained its status as a specialized agency of the United Nations, bringing together 161 Member States and more than four hundred companies, universities, NGOs and associations from the private sector who are the AFFILIATE MEMBERS. Our Members, ---among whom we are proud to count on the IGLTA- include airlines, hotel groups, universities, training schools, industry associations, charities and more. This makes us quite unique since we’re the only Organization in the UN system which has members from the private sector.

Se proyecta un crecimiento medio (2010-2030) de 3,3%, comparecido con un crecimiento medio de 3,9% (1995-2010).Se prevé una ligera ralentización de 3,8% en 2011 a 2,5% en 2030 debido a una combinación de 4 factores prinicpales:Los volúmenes de base son mayores, entonces los pequeños incrementos todavía suman cifras importantesMenor crecimiento PIB con porque muchas economías maduraránMenor elasticidad PIB-disposición para viajarIncremento en el coste de transporteAún así, se espera un crecimiento medio de unas 43 millones de llegadas internacionales cada año (2010-2030) una cifra equivalente a todas las llegadas internacionales en Italia en el año 2010.
Esperamos pasar el mil millón de llegadas internacionales en el año 2012 (desde los 938 millones en 2010), pasando los 1.400 millones en 2020, 1.500 millones en 2023 y un total de 1.800 millones de ll.ii para el año 2030.
…
Las llegadas internacionales en los destinos de economías emergentes crecerán al doble (4,4%) del crecimiento de las llegadas internacionales en las economías avanzadas (2,2%). Como consecuencia, a partir del año 2015 se prevé más llegadas en las economías emergentes que en las economías avanzadas, un total que llegará al 1.000 millón de llegadas internacionales (econemerg) en 2030.No obstante, es importante tener en cuenta que existe un margen importante entre el numero de llegadas internacionales recibidas per 100 personas en las economías emergentes y las avanzadas porque la mayoría de la población mundial vive en las economías emergentes (85% en 2010 y 87% en 2030).2010-2030:Econ. Avanzadas: Llegadas internacionales per 100 personas 49 (2010), 70 (2030).Econ. Emergentes: Llegadas internacionales pero 100 personas 8 (2010) 14 (2030).
Asia y el Pacifico ganará la mayoría de las llegadas internacionales: 204 millones, 2010; 535 milliones, 2030.También se duplicarán las llegadas internacionales en el Oriente Medio y África durante este periodo, con un crecimiento comparativamente menor en las Américas. La reducción de cuota de mercado para Europa y las Américas se debe a la tasa menor de crecimiento económico en America del Norte, Europa Occidental y Europa del Norte.

Y hoy, como comenté al incio de mi presentación, me gustaría presentarles algunos de los resultados nuevo informe realizado por la OMT, en colaboración con la International Gay and LesbianTravelAssociation – sobre el turismo LGBT en el mundo hoy en día. Este es el primer proyecto realizado por la Organización Mundial del Turismo sobre este tema, y para mi ha sido un placer liderar este proyecto, precisamente porque, como mis compañeros han comentado, por diversas razones el mercado LGBT está cada vez más visible e interesante para empresas y destinos en todo el mundo. .

So howdidwe do this?
FIRSTLY…

Allthesedestinationsstatedthat gay tourismhadbeenboostedbytheapproval of same-sex unionsbetween LGBT people.
And many marketing campaignshavecapitalizedonthis.que vale mucho mayor que cualquier campaña de marketing o publicidad.Aquí vemos como España ha reforzado esta proyección internacional con su campaña de promoción turística ‘I needSpain’
SECONDLY,Youknowthisbetterthananyoneelse: youcan’tprofile gay people, and this is somethingwe’vebeenkeentounderlinetothereaders of thisreport. Forexamplethatthis is a crisis-proofsegment.
However, Bob points out that “with trusted online and confidential surveys, we can gain far more valuable knowledge about LGBT travel identities, habits, attitudes and preferences, as well as the fact that more and more companies are using the LGBT market as a key reference for what’s next in the world of cutting edge technology and fashion.
In short, as the IGLTA articleclearlystates, ….
Manydestinationsthat responded tooursurvey, toldusabouttheir active collaborationwith a variety of local LGBT groups, whichwereabletoprovide mutual guidance and support. Thiskind of stuff is reallyencouraging and helpstodemonstrate real sincerityaboutmeetingtheneeds of LGBT people in thedestination.Sothemessage is: goout and learnaboutthe LGBT segment : itwillhelpyourbusinessstrategy and helpyoutoapproachconsumerswith real sincerity.
