UN Tourism is the specialized agency of the United Nations (UN) responsible for promoting tourism as a factor for sustainable, responsible, accessible, and inclusive development for all.

As the leading international organization in the field of tourism, it brings together 166 countries and territories, as well as over 500 affiliated members representing the private sector, academic institutions, tourism associations, and local tourism authorities.

UN Tourism, as the leading international organization in the field of tourism, advocates for tourism that contributes to economic growth, inclusive development, and environmental sustainability. It provides leadership and support to the sector to expand its knowledge and tourism policies worldwide.

Among its priorities, UN Tourism focuses on the recovery of international tourism following the crisis stemming from the pandemic. It also emphasizes the need to "rethink tourism" from all perspectives, including the legal aspect, in order to achieve clearer, more transparent, and balanced legal and regulatory frameworks for states. Additionally, it aims for progressive harmonization of tourism regulations at both regional and international levels.

Indeed, the progressive harmonization of national, regional and international regulations applicable to tourism will make it possible to address the significant shortcomings of the sector's current legal and regulatory frameworks, as well as to reduce the large disparities that exist at both regional and international level with regard to tourism legislation.
