But what exactly does \u201ctravel responsibly\u201d mean? How to be a tourist respectful of the environment, places and local communities? Which principles should be followed? The <strong>festival of responsible tourism \u201cIT.A.C\u00c0, migrants and travelers\u201d<\/strong> has answered these questions with a new interesting <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/sb.ecobnb.net\/app\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/Il-MANIFESTO-del-Festival-IT.A.CA-2021.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Manifesto<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>(in Italian). It is a document that in 8 points clearly illustrates what \u201cresponsible tourism\u201d means. But what are those <strong>8 points<\/strong>? Let\u2019s see them together!<\/p>\n<h2>1. Looking Ahead, Staying Home<\/h2>\n<div class=\"thumbnail alignnone\"><img src=\"https:\/\/sb.ecobnb.net\/app\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/jed-villejo-bEcC0nyIp2g-unsplash-870x490.jpg\" alt=\"guys, fiends, run, future, plants\" width=\"870\" height=\"490\" \/><div class=\"caption\">Photo by Jed Villejo on Unsplash<\/div><\/div>\n<p>That is: looking far away (to the future of our planet and of coming generations) by choosing nearby destinations. <a href=\"https:\/\/ecobnb.com\/blog\/2018\/04\/new-travellers-without-plane-slow-travel\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Responsible travelers try not to take the plane<\/a> and do not choose destinations on the other side of the world. Rather, responsible travel means discovering places in our own region, living the journey as a real experience, in which it does not matter the destination, but the way we set out.<\/p>\n<p>This first point of the Manifesto of responsible tourism underlines the importance of developing a<strong> slower and nearby tourism<\/strong>. \u201cLooking ahead\u201d, in fact, means thinking about future generations and, why not, also caring about the development of our own territory.<\/p>\n<h2>2. Tourist, (Con)Temporary Citizen<\/h2>\n<div class=\"thumbnail alignnone\"><img src=\"https:\/\/sb.ecobnb.net\/app\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/roxxie-blackham-MMlGbX9BmAo-unsplash-870x490.jpg\" alt=\"nature, responsible tourism, girls, flowers\" width=\"870\" height=\"490\" \/><div class=\"caption\">Photo by Roxxie Blackham on Unsplash<\/div><\/div>\n<p><strong>Tourists<\/strong> become in all respects <strong>temporary citizens<\/strong> of the places they visit. This is why <a href=\"https:\/\/ecobnb.com\/blog\/2019\/07\/responsible-tourism-ecotourism\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>responsible tourism<\/strong><\/a> does not involve a passive relationship between tourist and territory, but rather a real <strong>exchange between guest and resident<\/strong>. True wealth is created with the desire to know and <strong>respect<\/strong> new places and to discover different cultures.<\/p>\n<h2>3. Caring about the Journey to Develop the Human Being<\/h2>\n<div class=\"thumbnail alignnone\"><img src=\"https:\/\/sb.ecobnb.net\/app\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/felix-rostig-UmV2wr-Vbq8-unsplash-870x490.jpg\" alt=\"responsible tourism, guys, mountains, travel, journey\" width=\"870\" height=\"490\" \/><div class=\"caption\">Photo by Felix Rostig on Unsplash<\/div><\/div>\n<p>The <strong>journey<\/strong> has to be <a href=\"https:\/\/ecobnb.com\/blog\/2018\/09\/travel\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>a means to grow as human beings<\/strong><\/a>, and everyone should be free to move. However, in order to develop the communities, it is not enough to just move, because only a <strong>sustainable<\/strong> travel from the environmental, economic, cultural and social point of view can really <strong>value a territory<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h2>4. There is no Sustainability without Responsibility<\/h2>\n<div class=\"thumbnail alignnone\"><img src=\"https:\/\/sb.ecobnb.net\/app\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/zac-durant-_6HzPU9Hyfg-unsplash-870x490.jpg\" alt=\"nature, man, sunset, clouds\" width=\"870\" height=\"490\" \/><div class=\"caption\">Photo by Zac Durant on Unsplash<\/div><\/div>\n<p>Responsible tourism is a <a href=\"https:\/\/ecobnb.com\/blog\/2019\/06\/slow-tourism-italy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>slow tourism<\/strong><\/a>, thanks to which <strong>visitors<\/strong> live and <strong>respect<\/strong> the environment, the territory and local communities. The responsible tourist, in fact, must possess the instruments to recognize and support the environmental, economic, cultural and social <strong>sustainability<\/strong> of the territory in which they are hosted.<\/p>\n<h2>5. Co-designing Collectively, Acting Locally<\/h2>\n<div class=\"thumbnail alignnone\"><img src=\"https:\/\/sb.ecobnb.net\/app\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/brooke-cagle-uHVRvDr7pg-unsplash-870x490.jpg\" alt=\"group, project, network\" width=\"870\" height=\"490\" \/><div class=\"caption\">Photo by Brooke Cagle on Unsplash<\/div><\/div>\n<p>Responsible tourism has to be based also on a <strong>network of collaborations<\/strong> between tourist activities of various locations. This network, based on <strong>common values<\/strong>, will allow the territories to <strong>develop<\/strong> thanks to co-designing initiatives, started directly from the entities involved.<\/p>\n<h2>6. Right to Hospitality for New Forms of Communities<\/h2>\n<div class=\"thumbnail alignnone\"><img src=\"https:\/\/sb.ecobnb.net\/app\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/chuttersnap-NraCi7VU9Hc-unsplash-870x490.jpg\" alt=\"footprints, travel, migrations\" width=\"870\" height=\"490\" \/><div class=\"caption\">Photo by CHUTTERSNAP on Unsplash<\/div><\/div>\n<p>Other topics to bring the attentions to are those of <strong>hospitality<\/strong>, <strong>remaining<\/strong>, <strong>migrations<\/strong>, <strong>global citizenship<\/strong> and <strong>inequalities<\/strong>. Everyone should have the <strong>right<\/strong> to decide whether to stay where they are or to leave. And as a consequence, No one should be forced to stay in the place where they are or to have to leave.<\/p>\n<h2>7. Tourism Instrument of Co-habitation<\/h2>\n<div class=\"thumbnail alignnone\"><img src=\"https:\/\/sb.ecobnb.net\/app\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/toa-heftiba-_UIVmIBB3JU-unsplash-870x490.jpg\" alt=\"connection, contact, responsible tourism, different cultures\" width=\"870\" height=\"490\" \/><div class=\"caption\">Photo by Toa Heftiba on Unsplash<\/div><\/div>\n<p>Responsible tourism promotes the respect and the <strong>co-habitation<\/strong> between <strong>different cultures<\/strong>. That is why it is important to create democratic environments with shared values and common projects.<\/p>\n<h2>8. Becoming as overcoming of Incoming<\/h2>\n<div class=\"thumbnail alignnone\"><img src=\"https:\/\/sb.ecobnb.net\/app\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/hannah-busing-Zyx1bK9mqmA-unsplash-870x490.jpg\" alt=\"community, development, responsible tourism, hands\" width=\"870\" height=\"490\" \/><div class=\"caption\">Photo by Hannah Busing on Unsplash<\/div><\/div>\n<p>Responsible tourism also focuses on the <strong>wellbeing of residents<\/strong> and on their active contribution to the development of their territory. <strong>Incoming<\/strong>, which is the <strong>continuous flow of arriving tourists<\/strong>, must leave room for <strong>becoming<\/strong>: the <strong>development of territories<\/strong>, a path in the making that involves <strong>local communities<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h2>In Conclusion<\/h2>\n<div class=\"thumbnail alignnone\"><img src=\"https:\/\/sb.ecobnb.net\/app\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/concerti-live-870x490.jpeg\" alt=\"manifesto festival IT.A.CA\" width=\"870\" height=\"490\" \/><div class=\"caption\">IT.A.CA\u2019 Festival of Responsible Tourism<\/div><\/div>\n<p>The Manifesto of IT.A.C\u00c0 describes a responsible tourism, which cares about each aspect of sustainable development. <strong>Visitors<\/strong> and resident <strong>communities<\/strong> have to play an <strong>active role<\/strong> in the promotion of an environmental, economic, cultural and social sustainability.<\/p>\n<p>And what do you think?
