What could the next generation of tourism, hospitality and events look like in Naarm Melbourne, Australia? How can workers across industry reconnect with the true essence of travel to create benefits for visitors, operators and destinations, now and into the future?

This special industry presentation featuring internationally recognised thought leader Anna Pollock is for progressive tourism, hospitality and events professionals. Anna will be sharing examples from destinations which have implemented regenerative approaches from around the world, including Flanders (Belgium), Aotearoa New Zealand and Ireland.

Hosted by Regeneration Projects in collaboration with William Angliss Institute, Young Tourism Network and The Hive, this event is designed to spark creativity and innovation by showcasing international and homegrown talent. Together we recognise that the conditions for the regeneration of social, cultural, ecological, economic and political systems requires decision-making from Everyone - operators, policy-makers, teachers, destination planners, marketeers and community. Importantly, the Education sector has a unique role to play so we'll also be hearing how institutions are adapting to changing trends and needs.

This event consciously responds to the recently published Young Tourism Network 'Workplaces Report 2022', which called for an industry-wide transition to a Purpose beyond Profit and increased intergenerational collaboration.

If you're ready to be part of the transformation and evolution of Victoria's visitor economy, then let's spread the word and we'll see you soon!
