Cordova has been chosen as the venue for the International Conference on Tourism, Religions and Dialogue of Cultures, convened by the World Tourism Organisation (WTO) with the support of the Spanish Government, to be held at the city’s congress centre from 29-31 October.



Objectives

One of the aims of this WTO conference is to analyse the relationships between tourism and religion, with a view to optimizing their synergies and interactions by harnessing tourism’s potential to stimulate and facilitate dialogue among civilizations, cultures and religions.



Another objective is to offer orientations and recommendations to governments, religious authorities and tourism operators for the sustainable development and management of tourism motivated by religious purposes or associated with religious heritage sites, as well as addressing how to optimize the benefits that such tourism can generate.
