The Tourism Programme offers a specific sector approach to addressing one broad aim of much of ODI's work: how to close the gap between poverty and economic growth. For the past decade, the Tourism Programme has been seeking answers to two fundamental questions:
How does tourism affect the poor?
How can tourism development be changed to increase net benefits to poor people ?
We aim to do this by informing and inspiring policies and practice to enable the private, public and non-governmental sectors to work together more effectively.
Our team offers experience and expertise on how tourism can alleviate poverty. Find out more here about the team members, our partners and our recent funders.
