This document discusses the potential tourism relevance of various French government ministries and commissions under the newly formed Sarkozy government. It analyzes how each ministry could impact tourism through their responsibilities such as poverty alleviation, environmental sustainability, regional development, foreign relations, economic policy, immigration, agriculture, education, urban planning, and culture. Developing coherent macroeconomic policy across these diverse areas that also trickles down to local governments could prove difficult given the complex interrelationships between factors and competing interests.

TOURISM
Tourism is a collection of activities, services and industries which
deliver a travel experience comprising transportation,
accommodation, eating and drinking establishments, retail
shops, entertainment businesses and other hospitality services
provided for individuals or groups traveling away from home.
Tourism is different from travel.
In order for tourism to happen, there must be a displacement:
an individual has to travel, using any type of means of
transportation (he might even travel on foot: nowadays, it is
often the case for poorer societies, and happens even in more
developed ones, and concerns pilgrims, hikers etc.).

Tourism as a multiplier effect in economy: the case of Albaniainventionjournals
Tourism is an important economic activity in most countries worldwide. This sector has significant direct and indirect impact in the economy. The determination of the multiplier effect of tourism is very important part of economy. The multiplier effect measures the expenditures done on other part of economy, rather than tourism. Tourism not only creates job but also encourages growth on other sectors of industry.
What is international tourism?
• Tourism is the generic term used to cover both demand and
supply that has been adopted in a variety of forms and used
throughout the world. International tourism essentially
refers to the activities undertaken by visitors, also known
as the visitor economy. The tourism industry encompasses
all activity that takes place within the visitor economy.
• This includes activities that are directly related to the
tourist, such as staying in a hotel, ordering a meal or
visiting a tourist attraction. It also includes indirect
activities, such as the transport company which delivers
the food to the restaurant in which the tourist eats or the
laundry company that has a contract with the hotel for
cleaning bed sheets.
• It is largely due to the indirect contributions to tourism,
that defining and measuring the tourism industry is so
difficult!
International tourism definitions
• Tourism is a phenomenon with no universally accepted
definition, owing to the complexity and individualism of
the travellers themselves and the activities that they
choose to undertake.
• The most widely utilised definition of tourism, proposed
by the World Trade Organisation (WTO) and United States
(UN) Nations Statistics Division (1994), prescribes that
in order to qualify as a tourist one must travel and remain
in a place outside of their usual residential environment
for not more than one consecutive year for leisure,
business or other purposes.
• Matheison and Wall (1982) on the other hand, do not impose
a timeframe, simply stating that one must travel to a
destination temporarily.
• Leiper (1979) believed that defining tourism is more
complex than this, proposing that there are three
approaches that can be taken. The economic stance focuses
on tourism as a business, the technical stance focusses on
the tourist in order to provide a common basis by which to
collect data and the holistic stance attempts to include
the entire essence of the subject.
• The Cambridge Dictionary define tourism quite simply as;
‘the business of providing services such as transport,

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

1. French Ministries and their Tourism Relevance?
Some Answers
Consider each of the following Ministries / High Commissions in the newly-formed
Sarkozy government:
Which of them have potential Tourism relevance, and WHY? (give as many
reasons as you can) Which has the legal responsibility for Tourism within its
portfolio?
• High Commission for Active Solidarity against Poverty.
• People in poverty cannot afford holidays.... possibly means the State might
have to afford a form of Social Tourism
• People assisted INTO work have the opportunity to engage in Leisure and
Tourism with the disposable income left to them once the bills have been paid.
• Ministry of Ecology, Sustainable Planning and Development
• All industries SHOULD be made more sustainable:
• Tourism has a BIG environmental impact: CO2 from transport (esp. Air
transport).... you can’t have Tourism without transport!
• Direct effect of Tourism activities
• Over-development, heavy energy use
• Sheer weight of numbers on sensitive sites... etc
• Ministry of the Interior, Overseas France and Local Authorities
• Local authorities are behind Regional/Departmental destination development,
management, information provision and promotion. They also control
budgets for local amenities that act as attractors of Tourism, like events,
sports, arts and heritage facilities, townscape.....
• Ministry of Foreign and European Affairs
• Sets the image of the country abroad, with associated impacts – for example
the French state’s initial direct and very public opposition to the war in Iraq
rendered France ‘Unamerican’ for while => a disinclined market for Paris?
• Ministry of Economy, Finance and Employment
• Sponsors and directs the economic health of French industry: better
performing industry more jobs and job security more Tourism spending
on holidays and business Tourism (it works the opposite way around too!)
• The economic health of the nation (in part) assists the value of the Euro
against other currencies:
• A fall in Euro value increased visits and spend from higher value
currency nations
• A rise in the Euro value fall in visits and lower spend by lower value
currencies
• If taxation changes (TVA/VAT, employers or employee taxes, there will be
a direct effect upon employment and upon disposable income and
therefore upon Tourism.
• Ministry of Immigration Integration, National Identity and Co-Development
• Immigrants tend to travel ‘home’ or to have a lot of visitors from home =
increased tourist activity between the French old colonies and France.
2. • Ministry of Agriculture and Fisheries
• France is the world capital of food and wine anything that affects food and
wine production and pricing is going to directly affect the Tourism experience
and perhaps the image of the destination as well.
• Ministry for Labour, Labour Relations and Solidarity
• Ministry for National Education
• Education changes who we are, what we feel, what we believe and what we
want......some examples:
• Greater languages fluency...more willingness to travel
• Greater understanding of sustainability – greater propensity to buy
sustainable travel and Tourism (as opposed to mass market products).
• More in higher education broader interests+ higher incomes
education taking a greater role in Tourism (not just entertainment).
• Ministry of Defence
• Ministry of Health, Youth and Sport
• Greater lifelong interests in health and sport greater interest in and
capacity for more active rather than passive holidays.
• Ministry for Housing and Urban Affairs
• Cities are increasingly becoming Tourism destinations: major state-sponsored
urban renewal and regeneration programmes can transform entire cities and
their accessibility, desirability, their Tourism infrastructure and economic
base.
• Ministry for Culture and Communication
• Culture is a major Tourism asset: a significant destination differentiator. The
more French culture ‘conquers’ the world the greater the interest in
France as a destination.
• Ministry for the Budget, Public Accounts and the Civil Service.
Given your answers to the above, can you foresee any difficulties for the state to
develop coherent macroeconomic policy for Tourism and see that it is
implemented consistently both across ministries of state and cascaded
downwards to the regions and local government?
Macroeconomics is essentially about defining, developing and implementing
politically-driven policies which achieve governmental aims and objectives by
adjusting prevailing economic conditions. This can be as dramatic as intervening in
the market to influence interest rates or to raise revenue or facilitate supply or demand
activity by means of changes to the taxation system. At the other end of the scale,
government subsidies for, say, training can improve skill levels, reduce
unemployment and increase industry competitiveness. The problem is that there is
never enough national ‘cake’ for the state to do everything: what it does it then
moderated by importance, urgency and political expediency. Sometimes what the
state does is a double-edged sword: it supports some groups / industries / interests and
at the same time negatively affects others.
