Responsible Tourism in Oppressive Regimes - A Guide for Tour Operators to Put People First Website Human rights due diligence is particularly crucial when states take no or insufficient action to mitigate human rights risks. A highly topical issue, as according to "Freedom House", only 20 % of the global population live in free countries. The tourism industry sends travellers all over the world and maintains economic relations accordingly. A boycott cannot be the solution - but it is the responsibility, also of small and medium-sized enterprises, to act with special care and attention when offering tours to oppressive regimes. This applies where challenging political conditions have existed for years, are just changing or where new destinations and travel markets are emerging. The printable online publication "Responsible Tourism in Oppressive Regimes – A Guide for Tour Operators to Put People First" helps tour operators with the complex question of how to offer responsible tourism in politically challenging countries as it guides through the first steps, showcases possible fields of action and offers additional links and resources.
