Executive Summary

Tourism is an important driver of economic growth, globally and locally. The sector directly contributes 4.4% of GDP, 6.9% of employment and 21.5% of service exports in OECD countries, on average, and continued growth provides real prospects for sustainable and inclusive development. However, integrated and forward-looking policies are needed to ensure this growth better delivers benefits for people, places and businesses.
