Tourism is often a crucial sector for islands highly dependent on climate and seasonality. The link between circular economy, sustainable tourism, water scarcity and waste management and prevention is essential including for hospitality establishments on islands. @CPMR_Europe

[mthizon @marthizon]

Islands belong to 13 member states in the 🇪🇺. Ireland, Malta & Cyprus are the 3 insular EU countries.
It is crucial to understand the unique challenges islands are facing in relation to #waste management. Especially in touristic destinations & within the #Hospitality industry.

"The #tourism taskforce must remain for the next 5 years."

"Labour shortages and the lack of skills are crucial issues in the #hospitality sector."

Tourism is much more than shiny brochures. It is about people, intercultural connections helping travellers understand other cultural norms & mindset. It is about economic development & sustainability. Attendance at tonight's event hosted by @josiannecutajar shows its importance.
