\"Be<\/a>Rome, Italy, June 29, 2022 \/ TRAVELINDEX \/ His Holiness Pope Francis has sent an historic message of support to UNWTO\u2019s first Global Youth Tourism Summit. As the Summit was underway in Sorrento, Italy, His Holiness called on young participants to make the most of the unique opportunity to develop the knowledge and the skills they will need to\u00a0build a better future for tourism<\/strong>\u00a0and for their home communities.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe experiences that you will make [in Sorrento] will be enshrined in your memories,\u201d Pope Francis said. \u201cThis is how you will grow and will be prepared to assume more important roles. I wish that you will be messengers of hope and of rebirth for the future. I send you my blessings and my greetings.\u201d<\/p>\n

Empowering global youth<\/h1>\n

UNWTO Secretary-General Zurab Pololikashvili adds: \u201cThe Global Youth Tourism Summit celebrates and promotes the role that young people will play in shaping our sector in the years to come. By giving them the knowledge and the tools they need to lead the sector forwards, participants can act on Pope Francis\u2019s welcome words and become ambassadors of tourism for peace and solidarity.\u201d<\/p>\n

UNWTO has enjoyed a long and productive relationship with the Holy See, which has held observer status to the Organization since 1975. In 2019, Secretary-General Pololikashvili enjoyed an official visit to the Vatican to meet Pope Francis, using the occasion to highlight tourism\u2019s essential role in eradicating poverty and promoting peace.<\/p>\n

The first Global Youth Tourism Summit will also feature the support and participation of a number of UNWTO Ambassadors as well as leading figures from across the sector, including Ministers from every global region. The week-long event will also feature a mock UNWTO General Assembly to allow the youngsters to debate the theme of tourism and discuss the innovative proposals for the future of the sector within the global framework of the\u00a0UN 2030 Agenda and the 17 Sustainable Development Goals<\/strong>\u00a0(SDGs).<\/p>\n
