Upscaling the Impact of Digital Tourism on Social Entrepreneurship Through Youth Work

Project Description

The project relies on the application of digital technologies in the tourism sector in order to offer young people the opportunity to launch innovative volunteer initiatives with vulnerable groups. Going through digital experiences, young people will be motivated to volunteer and think about social entrepreneurship during the realization of the project. The project will contribute to the development of their competences: as researchers (looking for interesting cultural or tourist topics), as storytellers and creators of digital content (using audiovisual tools), as marketing workers (in order to make their offer more attractive than others), as socially responsible people (with considering the barriers faced by vulnerable groups). The result of this project is the Manual for Digital Tourism which, as a set of practical advice, will primarily help young people to better understand digital tourism and cultural heritage.
