"Tourism contributes to human enrichment, interaction, wellbeing, cultural development and social cohesion. Tourism also promotes Europe’s cultural and linguistic heritage, while respecting both its diversity and shared values, and reinforces the sense of European identity, belonging and citizenship. Europe’s diversity, multifaceted nature and multiculturalism expand any form of thematic tourism, and the development and promotion of forms of diversified tourism may be the only effective response to the distortions, problems and deterioration caused by the model of unregulated and undifferentiated mass tourism. Tourism development has a key role to play in enhancing the regional dimension within the European Union.
Tourism provides a crucial economic resource and is the main calling card that Europe presents to the whole world. At the same time, I do not think that European tourism is utilised to its real potential. Europe has a huge amount to offer to both its own citizens and the rest of the world. This is why I urge Member States to facilitate and promote professional training for tourism activity organisers, lend support to the diversification and specialisation of European tourism, and encourage tourism organisations to exchange good practices."@en1
