The knowledge of tourism and its impact on society requires, more and more, the collaboration of people who work together with the aim of working as a team and advancing in common fields of social, commercial and economic interest.
How are the working groups formed?
Each group is formed by the independent decision of its members, who join the group because they want to contribute with their knowledge and activate the creation of a group in a specific area of tourism or social interest, contributing especially in the topics that most interest or concern them.
To participate in the groups it is necessary to be a member of the Tourism and Society Think Tank.
Each member can join the interest groups by sending an e-mail to info@tourismandsocietytt.com, indicating name and surname, country, contact telephone numbers and e-mail addresses (primary and secondary).
The working groups are governed by the Working Group Operating Rules of the Tourism and Society Think Tank (TSTT), with relevant information on the creation, formalisation, objectives, activities, functioning, responsible persons, benefits, funding, etc.
