Visitor management is a central building block for sustainable tourism, as it helps to strike a balance between the needs of travellers, locals and the environment. It enables the long-term utilisation of tourism resources without overexploiting them and thus contributes to sustainable development.

The thematic block consists of an opening lecture, the presentation of a best practice and a subsequent panel discussion. Speakers will be added on an ongoing basis.
