ICOMOS Charter on Cultural Heritage Tourism

ICOMOS is erg tevreden met de adoptie van de vernieuwde ICOMOS International Cultural Heritage Tourism Charter, die is goed gekeurd tijdens de General Assembly van october 2022 in Thailand. De vernieuwde Charter is tot stand gekomen door het werk van de ICOMOS International Cultural Tourism Committee (ICTC).

In essentie adresseert de charter het volgende:

"..the primary relationships between the cultural identity and cultural heritage of the host community and the interests, expectations and behavior of visitors, both domestic and international. It promotes the engagement of the host community, including indigenous and traditional custodians in all aspects of planning and managing for tourism, particularly at heritage sites, within cultural landscapes and in historic towns."
