    Why OECD Work on Tourism Policy Matters

    The OECD focuses on tourism by monitoring policies, evaluating performance, and maintaining a tourism economics database. It offers comparative knowledge, policy advice, and implementation support to enhance competitiveness, innovation, and sustainable development in tourism. Lessons from the COVID-19 pandemic are being drawn to foster resilient and green tourism economies, benefiting local economies and communities while improving environmental outcomes.
