Some people have called the tourists the vandals of the future. They stamp down everything they walk through like swarm of wild animals. So why promote developing of tourism? As The World Tourism Organization writes on its website: "Modern tourism is closely linked to development and encompasses a growing number of new destinations. These dynamics have turned tourism into a key driver for socio-ýeconomic progress." Tourism has become one of the major players in international commerce, and represents at the same time one of the main income sources for many developing countries. This global spread of tourism in industrialised and developed states has produced economic and employment benefits in many related sectors - from construction to agriculture or telecommunications. The World Tourism Organization (UNWTO/OMT) is a specialized agency of the United Nations and the leading international organization in the field of tourism. It serves as a global forum for tourism policy issues and a practical source of tourism know-how. Source (The World Tourism Organization`s website): www.unwto.org UNWTO plays a central and decisive role in promoting the development of responsible,sustainable and universally accessible tourism, paying particular attention to the interests of developing countries. UNWTO predicts a 4% growth of international tourist arrivals in 2007, in line with its long-term forecast growth rate through to 2020 of 4.1%. Read the article on The World Tourism Organization`s website why tourism is important for the world development: Why tourism - UNWTO - How to reduce poverty and fostering sustainable development, and how to preserve valuable attractions around the world such as Machu Picchu, Ankor Wat and Venice before tourists break them down? - Is building a big hotel complex at the site of Machu Piccu the right way to develop a sustainable tourism? - How will the increasing number of tourists impact the wild life in Africa? World Tourism Day is celebrated every year on 27 September. This year Ghana in Africa will be the host. Its purpose is to foster awareness among the international community of the importance of tourism and its social, cultural, political and economic value. The event seeks to address global challenges outlined in the UN Millennium Development Goals and to highlight the contributions the tourism sector can make in reaching these goals.

Turizam - ekonomski i socijalni fenomen Tijekom desetljeća turizam je doživio kontinuirani rast i produbljivanje diverzifikacije kako bi postao jedan od najbrže rastućih gospodarskih sektora u svijetu. Suvremeni turizam usko je povezan s razvojem i obuhvaća sve veći broj novih destinacija. Te su dinamike pretvorile turizam u ključni pokretač socioekonomskog napretka. Danas, poslovni volumen turizma jednak je ili čak nadmašuje izvoz nafte, prehrambenih proizvoda ili automobila. Turizam je postao jedan od glavnih sudionika u međunarodnoj trgovini i istodobno predstavlja jedan od glavnih izvora prihoda za mnoge zemlje u razvoju. Ovaj rast ide ruku pod ruku s povećanjem raznolikosti i konkurencije među odredištima. Ovo globalno širenje turizma u industrijaliziranim i razvijenim državama proizvelo je pogodnosti za gospodarstvo i zapošljavanje u mnogim srodnim sektorima - od gradnje do poljoprivrede ili telekomunikacija. Doprinos turizma za gospodarsko blagostanje ovisi o kvaliteti i prihodima turističke ponude. UNWTO pomaže destinacijama u svom održivom pozicioniranju na sve složenijim nacionalnim i međunarodnim tržištima. Kao agencija UN-a posvećena turizmu, UNWTO ističe da posebno zemlje u razvoju imaju koristi od održivog turizma i djeluju kako bi to postigle i u stvarnosti.
