intersection of health and sustainable tourism. The intervention focused on 6 essential health dimensions of tourism, including:</p><ol><li>employment and occupational health – addressing unsafe and precarious working conditions in the tourism sector to protect mental and physical health;</li><li>economic growth and development – promoting the health and well-being of tourism workers and host communities as drivers for economic development;</li><li>environment and planetary health – preventing and responding to the triple planetary crisis of climate change, biodiversity loss and pollution, which affect both tourists and host communities;</li><li>quality health services – ensuring tourists have access to quality health services, especially in emergency preparedness;</li><li>equity and human rights – focusing on gender, youth and vulnerable communities, and ensuring accessibility in tourism for all, including disabled persons, older people and those with chronic conditions; and</li><li>hygiene, security and safety – highlighting that destinations with robust health systems, good hygiene and safe travel conditions are more attractive to visitors.</li></ol><p>Dr Bettina Menne, Senior Policy Advisor for Healthy Settings at the WHO European Office on Investment for Health and Development, highlighted, “Today we have a unique opportunity to strengthen health and well-being in tourism settings.
