TO DO Award Human Rights in Tourism. This award recognizes initiatives, projects, and individuals who exemplify the protection and adherence to human rights principles in tourism.

The topic of human rights plays an important role in tourism. Tourism is a service sector - people make tourism possible. At the same time, tourism affects numerous human rights along the supply chain. 

The award is intended to draw the attention of politically responsible persons, economic actors and tourism target groups to the human rights relevance of tourism offers and to enable them to act in a reflective manner when encountering and dealing with other cultures/people. It wants to create an understanding that tourism can only succeed for mutual benefit if human rights dimensions of offers are taken into account. It is intended to show positive examples that encourage imitation and further development, and to raise awareness of human rights problems and positive engagement in this field.
