How can circular economy approaches reduce emissions and build climate-resilience for the places tourism calls home?

The Global Roundtable on Climate Action in Tourism has the answers.

Climate Resilient Destinations: Circularity as Climate Action.

🗓️ 5 June 2026

Approved by consensus. In force today.
Andorra has adopted a new General Tourism Law.

Why does that matter?

Because tourism doesn’t shape itself.

The new law strengthens quality, competitiveness, sustainability and the visitor experience while providing greater certainty for destinations, businesses and investors.

Congratulations to the Government of Andorra, the Ministry of Tourism and Commerce and Minister Jordi Torres Falcó for their leadership in advancing this milestone.

UN Tourism is proud to have supported this process through technical cooperation and strategic guidance, helping align tourism legislation with global priorities and visitor expectations.

The rules shape the game.

Andorra just changed theirs.

4 priorities. And a future shaped by the stories we choose to tell together.

At the 72nd Meeting of the UN Tourism Commission for Europe in 🇲🇹 Malta, our Secretary-General shared her vision — and why Europe is central to everything we are doing.

Bringing together 41 European Member States, the Commission drives smarter, fairer, and more sustainable tourism policy.

One region. One shared agenda.

Connected thinking for connected challenges.

How can circular economy approaches reduce emissions and build climate-resilience for destinations?

Practical tools. Real solutions. Circular tourism in action.

To mark World Ocean Day, UNEP and UN Tourism are hosting two Technical Sessions under the Global Tourism Plastics Initiative (GTPI).

Two dates. Two deep dives into what’s actually working on the ground — from practical tools and reuse solutions to destination implementation experiences and lessons learned from reducing plastic pollution in tourism.

📅 2 June 2026 | 11:00–13:00 CEST
📅 8 June 2026 | 16:00–18:00 CEST

If you work in tourism, destination management, sustainability or circularity — this is your room.

🎬🇲🇹 Lights, camera, Malta!

UN Tourism Secretary-General Shaikha Al Nuwais visits the island nation that has captivated filmmakers for decades — as Malta proudly hosts the UN Tourism 72nd Meeting of the Commission for Europe (CEU).

A sit-down with President Myriam Spiteri Debono set the tone for meaningful conversations on tourism.

From the legendary Gladiator film set to the historic streets of Valletta — some destinations don’t just host stories, they become them. ✨

From silver screens to real-life discovery, Malta proves that some destinations are truly beyond imagination. 🌊☀️

🌍 Africa Day.

81 million visitors last year. 8% growth. A continent that never stops growing.

But the question now is who that growth truly reaches. Tourism cannot succeed if the communities hosting the world are left behind.

This year, the African Union has rightly put the spotlight on clean water and safe sanitation.

As we look ahead to leading the United Nations International Year of Sustainable and Resilient Tourism in 2027, this is exactly where our focus must be.

Opportunity. A real stake in the future. That future belongs to Africa’s youth.

UN Tourism is deeply committed to building this future together with our African partners.

Happy 💙

Historic neighborhoods are more than heritage. They are homes, livelihoods, and communities.
At the UN Habitat 13th Edition of the World Urban Forum 2026, UN Tourism joins UNESCO and UN Habitat to ask: how can cultural heritage regenerate our cities — better housing, public space, climate resilience, more inclusion — And what role can tourism play in helping achieve these goals?
