Smart Gets You Further - Tourism & Quality of Life

Smart Gets You Further – Tourism & Quality of Life

In this episode of the EU Smart Tourism Podcast, we explore how tourism can be a pathway to happiness and higher quality of life. Misa Labarile, Policy Officer at the European Commission, DG MOVE, together with speakers from Finland and Slovenia, discuss how travel is not only about sightseeing, but also about creating meaningful experiences that foster joy and fulfilment. We also take a look at how tourism is closely tied to the well-being of local communities and how the quality of life of residents and visitor satisfaction go hand in hand.

Speakers:

• Heli Jimenez: Senior Director, International Marketing, Business Finland

• Dejan Ristić: Project Manager, Ljubljana Tourism

Host: Misa Labarile, Policy Officer of the European Commission, DG MOVE.
