A panel discussion at the Royal Geographical Society on 20th February will debate sustainable travel’s ability to impact economic development. The event at RGS’s headquarters in London (and also live streamed) will focus on tourism in developing countries, their current situation and the role that sustianable travel can have in leading recovery and future economic development. The panel includes Professor Adam Blake from BU’s International Centre for Tourism and Hospitality Research who will talk about his experience in analysing tourism’s impact on development and poverty reduction in developing countries.
