Panel discussion
On October 30, 2020, as part of the Access IT Erasmus + project, a panel discussion was held on: accessibility of tourism in rural and natural areas, especially for groups at risk of exclusion, including the disabled. Representatives of the Polish Association of the Deaf, Łódź Branch, Łódź Chamber of Tourism, Social Cooperative “FADO”, Masovian Regional Tourist Organization and the tourist blog: www.robimypodroze.pl discussed the barriers to accessibility to tourist offers among groups of people with hearing, visual or physical disabilities, the impact of the pandemic Covid-19 for the tourism market in Poland and around the world, as well as examples of good practices for communication and reaching customers with special requirements.
The discussion was very fruitful and brought many practical observations and conclusions, also in terms of involving local authorities in activities related to innovative solutions in the field of tourism without borders.
The results of the discussions will soon be available on the project website in the form of a cross-sectional report on sustainable development of nature and rural areas in terms of creating a dedicated tourism industry throughout the project partnership.
