Only recently have we witnessed the inclusion of ethics and global
citizenship in tourism debates. The freedom of movement, the right to
travel and simultaneously the rise of a multitude of alternative
forms of tourism provide sufficient justification to discuss the
manifold relationships between tourism, ethics and global citizenship
in more detail during this event. Although these concepts have been
studied by various disciplines and as phenomena in their own right,
in order to connect the dots in contemporary political and
sociological thinking, it is important that scholars from different
disciplines converse and debate in person. There is a need for
understanding the relations and effects between the way we, as
tourists or hosts, interact with each other and the environment and
how people reflect on these encounters in terms of, for example,
hospitality, inequality, human rights, and mobility.

To understand the relations and effects between the way we, as
tourists or hosts, interact with each other and the environment and
how people reflect on these encounters, Saxion University of Applied
Sciences will be hosting its first International Conference on
Tourism, Ethics & Global Citizenship: Connecting the Dots on 3-6 July
2017 in Apeldoorn, the Netherlands. The conference is organised
jointly with Wageningen University and NHTV Breda University of
Applied Sciences.

The conference aims to strengthen the academic and professional
networks that are necessary to push forward the discussions of
tourism’s manifold intersections with existing and emergent ethical
approaches and forms of citizenship, and to discuss these concepts to
apply new insights in our research, policy documents and daily
practices. The conference intends a cross-disciplinary dialogue among
all those working in tourism and hospitality studies, philosophy,
business and management, culture and media studies, education,
anthropology, sociology, psychology, geography, sports and leisure
studies, heritage studies and related fields.
