Portugal’s secretary of state for tourism hopes that a high-level forum on Friday (14 May) will resolve “two major concerns”: the commitment of member states to sustainable tourism and funding lines for this transformation. “I would say that […] two major concerns will be resolved: on the one hand, this strict commitment of all member states to do more for a more sustainable, responsible, inclusive tourism,” Rita Marques told Lusa news agency. “On the other hand, a commitment to be able to frame this transformation of tourism in the various funding lines available, either at the level of the Community Support Framework 21-27, but also in the Next Generation EU,” she added.
