The Conference will feature 200 success stories from around the world to celebrate tourism as an industry for sustainable development and global understanding. Twelve unique topic streams will be featured at the Conference, including Ecotourism, Culture and Heritage, and Barrier Free Tourism. Fifteen featured keynote speakers will include Maurice Strong, Chairman, Earth Council and Secretary General of the U.N.
