The overall objective of the project is to initiate the methodology and institutional framework for the future development of resilient and inclusive cross-Baltic sustainable tourism. The long-term goal is to increase employment among youth, contributing to the wellbeing of societies in BRS countries. Project activities aim to promote sustainable and digital solutions applicable to the sector.
The tourism sector in the BRS to a large extent is based on maritime transportation, making it important for mobility and tourism opportunities.
The pandemic situation that started in early 2020, and now the Russian invasion of Ukraine has led to drastic changes within the BSR mobility, employment market, and the resilience of job stability. As a result of sanctions, restrictions, social distancing, and mobility limitations, a steep rise in employment and economic problems can be especially seen within the tourism and hospitality industries.
