Share ‘Good news in travel & tourism August-September 2023’ as you would a Rwandan feast prepared by local chefs and their trainees as part of a cooking competition organised by CC-JOBS and hosted at Red Rocks Cultural Campsite. In this photo by David Gillbanks, a contestant describes the delicious dishes contained within the traditional clay cooking pots she stands behind.

“Good Tourism” doesn’t judge. “GT” publishes.

Did you ever want to write a thoughtful piece about the state of the tourism industry; how we got here; how we can make it better (or avoid the worst)?

Has a lack of confidence in your writing held you back? Well, please don’t let it. “Good Tourism” is here to help you.

If you submit a draft that complies with the simple “GT” Insight guidelines, “GT’s” publisher will personally copy edit your work and ensure that you are happy with it before he clicks ‘Publish’.

It’s part of “GT’s” mission to offer a platform for truly diverse perspectives:

• From established opinion leaders in academia and industry, to young people with the gumption to express themselves;
• From elite global organisations, to the most modest of micro businesses (like “GT”);
• From the world’s ‘WEIRD’ (western, educated, industrialised, rich, and democratic) nations to the ‘LDCs’ (least developed countries) in the “Global South”;
• (From those who adore acronyms and categories, to those who despise them ;-))
• From the centre and from the margins.

Just as “Good Tourism” never defines ‘good tourism’, “GT” will never judge anyone who would, in good faith, share their insights, ideas, expertise, experience, and wisdom.

No, “GT” doesn’t judge. “GT” publishes.
