Day 2

Part 2: Wednesday November 4th from 10am CET – 12pm CET
Creating a more diverse and transparent hospitality industry. In collaboration with Google Europe

In light of racial inequality issues that have surfaced recently let’s think about ways the industry can encourage better race-related transparency within countries. Travel can be incredibly difficult simply because of the colour of your skin.

Governments often give advice on travelling to other countries if you’re LGBT, or simply in terms of things like terror threat, or corruption index, etc, but there’s no information for people based on race. As a result one of the most frequently searched for things on Google is sadly about racism levels in countries as people from minority backgrounds try to piece together if that country is a welcoming place to travel.

With this Curate we will put a bit of pressure on the industry to provide more transparency around race and equality when travelling, and through transparency, countries can be spurred into action and education.

We kindly ask you to spend three minutes filling out this survey: “Diversity as an employer of talent within the hotel, event and travel industry
