The Diplomat<\/strong><\/h6>\n

 <\/p>\n

From Caviahue-Copahue in Argentina to Tra Que Vegetable Village in Vietnam, UN Tourism announced this week 55 new \u201cBest Tourism Villages\u201d, chosen from more than 260 nominations from 60 Member States of the UN specialized agency.<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Their designation allows these rural destinations to consolidate their position as key players in sustainable tourism and community development. Another 20 villages have been chosen to join the Upgrade Programme. UN Tourism Secretary-General Zurab Pololikashvili noted that \u201ctourism is an essential tool for inclusion, empowering rural communities to protect and value their rich cultural heritage<\/strong> while driving sustainable development. The ‘Best Tourism Villages’ initiative not only recognizes the remarkable achievements of these villages, but also highlights the transformative power of tourism. By enhancing their unique assets, these communities can foster economic growth, promote local traditions and improve the quality of life for their residents. We celebrate the villages that have embraced tourism as a path to community empowerment and well-being, demonstrating that sustainable practices can lead to a brighter future for all.\u201d<\/p>\n

UN Tourism’s ‘Best Tourism Villages’ initiative was created in 2021 to promote the role of tourism in rural areas while preserving landscapes, cultural diversity, local values and culinary traditions. The ‘Best Tourism Villages’ (BTV) network is growing every year, and with the announcement of its 75 new members, 254 villages are now part of the world’s largest community of rural destinations.<\/p>\n

Uniting rural destinations for sustainable development<\/strong><\/p>\n

The ‘Best Tourism Villages’ initiative is part of UN Tourism’s Rural Development Program. The Program strives to enhance development and inclusion in rural areas, combat depopulation, foster innovation and value chain integration through tourism, and promote sustainable practices.<\/p>\n

As in previous editions, the villages were evaluated in nine main areas: 1. cultural and natural resources; 2. promotion and conservation of cultural resources; 3. economic sustainability; 4. Social sustainability; 5. Environmental sustainability; 6. Tourism development and value chain integration; 7. Tourism governance and prioritization; 8. Infrastructure and connectivity; and 9. Health and safety.<\/p>\n

The initiative comprises three pillars:<\/strong><\/p>\n

– \u201cBest Tourism Villages by UN Tourism<\/strong>\u201d: Recognizes outstanding examples of rural tourism destinations with recognized cultural and natural assets, a commitment to the preservation of community values, and a clear commitment to innovation and sustainability in the economic, social and environmental dimensions.<\/span><\/p>\n

– \u201cBest Tourism Villages by UN Tourism Upgrade Programme<\/strong>\u201d: supports villages in their efforts to meet the recognition criteria, helping them to improve in areas identified as a weakness during the assessment.<\/p>\n

– The \u201cBest Tourism Villages\u201d network<\/strong>: A space to exchange experiences and good practices, lessons learned and opportunities among its members, which is open to contributions from experts and public and private sector partners who contribute to the promotion of tourism as a driver of rural development.
