The Association of Air Transport and Tourist Agencies of Iran has become a new member of WTN. ATTAI is bringing in 1300 members from Iran, joining 29,000 fellow members in 133 countries.
Launched in Berlin, Germany, in 2020, with more than 29,000 members and supporters in 133 countries, the World Tourism Network has grown from the first informal online discussion about COVID-19 into an alternative but powerful voice around the globe, also giving Small and medium-sized businesses in the travel and tourism industry a more meaningful participation. Interest groups such as “Ageless Tourism”, “Medical Tourism”, “Ocean Alliance”, and “Peace Through Tourism” had been particularly active.
Advocacy activities related to the UN Tourism Organization’s concerns, such as the Stream for Ukraine campaign, have been dominating the discussion in the tourism world.
The mix of members from so many countries and diverse industry affiliations is a testament to how this type of diversity of personalities meets the needs of a diverse range of public member institutions.
“Today, the World Tourism Network is proud to greet our third member from the Islamic Republic of Iran. We welcome the Association of Air Transport and Tourist Agencies of Iran to take the lead, opening the doors for many of their members in Iran, and to become another strong voice in our global family of friends, discussing international tourism in an informal and often more effective manner”, said Juergen Steinmetz, the founder and chairman of WTN.
