Unlocking the potential of technical and vocational education and training (TVET) is instrumental for a more digital and sustainable hospitality and tourism sector.
The hospitality and tourism sector is a cornerstone for the global economy, yet its substantial environmental footprint necessitates urgent innovation. Embracing the use of cutting-edge technology, such as AI-driven customer management and smart analysis of energy consumption, can help mitigate these impacts and foster green, sustainable solutions.
As digitalisation and sustainability redefine the industry, traditional
job roles are undergoing continuous transformation, impacting the
day-to-day tasks and activities of workers. The integration of emerging
green and digital competencies into TVET is crucial for steering this
transformation. By equipping workers with relevant qualifications and
competencies, TVET holds the key to a greener and digitally driven sector.
This publication proposes approaches to facilitate the dual transition in
hospitality and tourism, structured around the identification of emerging
green and digital competencies in a timely manner, their integration into
future-oriented curricula, and their effective implementation in TVET. Drawing on practical examples from Africa, Asia-Pacific and Europe, it offers actionable recommendations for policymakers and practitioners.
TVET stakeholders from across the globe are invited to embrace innovation and engage in the transfer of knowledge and good practices to unlock the sector’s potential for a green and digitally just transformation.
