As coordinator of the group, I would like to thank all the experts for their work and for the quality of their contributions. During the course of our many exchanges and group meetings, the report was drafted with a truly constructive attitude, and the general atmosphere was marked by mutual trust and conviviality. It should also be noted that the group strove to deliver a balanced position in the report, by considering both the notion of “sustainable” tourism as well as the economic and social reality of the contribution this industry makes to the Alpine regions and their populations. equally, the group tried to strike a structural and editorial balance between the three pillars of sustainable development. Lastly, I speak for all the experts in expressing the hope that the report will result in practical measures to optimise the implementation of the Tourism Protocol of the Alpine Convention which was signed 15 years ago. In this respect, we note positively that at the end of November 2012, the 51st Permanent Committee meeting in Milan approved a preliminary set of decisions. This testifies, if need be, to what extent States recognise the importance of tourism for their development, and wish to preserve its principles.
