Since 1980, the United Nations World Tourism Organization has
celebrated World Tourism Day on September 27. This date was chosen as
on that day in 1970, the Statutes of the UNWTO were adopted. The
adoption of these Statutes is considered a milestone in global tourism.
The purpose of this day is to raise awareness on the role oftourism
within the international community and to demonstrate how it affects
social, cultural, political and economic values worldwide. This year's
theme is "Tourism and Water: Protecting our Common Future"
