Text A
As a fundamental frame of reference for responsible and sustainable tourism, the Global Code of Ethics for Tour­ism (GCET) is a comprehensive set of principles designed to guide key-players in tourism development. Addressed to governments, the travel industry, communities and tourists alike, it aims to help maximise the sector’s benets while min­imising its potentially negative impact on the environment, cultural heritage and societies across the globe.
The Code was called for in a resolution of UNWTO General Assembly, meeting in Istanbul, Turkey, in 1997. Over the following two years, a special committee for the preparation of the Code was formed and a draft document was prepared by the Secretary-General and the legal adviser to UNWTO, in consultation with UNWTO Business Council, UNWTO’s Regional Commissions, and the UNWTO Execu­tive Council.
The United Nations Commission on Sustainable Devel­opment, meeting in New York in April, 1999, endorsed the concept of the Code and requested UNWTO to seek further input from the private sector, non-governmental organiza­tions and labour organizations. Its acknowledgement by the United Nations expressly encouraged UNWTO to promote the effective follow-up of its provisions. Written comments on the Code were received from more than 70 UNWTO Member States and other entities. The resulting 10 point Global Code of Ethics for Tourism -the culmination of an extensive consul-
118
tative process – was approved unanimously and adopted by the UNWTO General Assembly at its meeting in Santiago, Chile, in October 1999.
Although not legally binding, the Code features a volun-
tary implementation mechanism through its recognition of the role of the World Committee on Tourism Ethics (WCTE), to which stakeholders may refer matters concerning the ap­plication and interpretation of the document.
The Code’s 10 principles amply cover the economic, social,
cultural and environmental components of travel and tourism:
Article 1: Tourism’s contribution to mutual understand-
ing and respect between peoples and societies
Article 2: Tourism as a vehicle for individual and collec-
tive fulllment
Article 3: Tourism, a factor of sustainable development Article 4: Tourism, a user of the cultural herit-
age of mankind and contributor to its enhancement Article 5: Tourism, a benecial activity for host countries and communities
Article 6: Obligations of stakeholders in tourism develop-
ment
Article 7: Right to tourism Article 8: Liberty of tourist movements Article 9: Rights of the workers and entrepreneurs in the
tourism industry
Article 10: Implementation of the principles of the Global
Code of Ethics for Tourism.

9. The article below contains 10 mistakes. Find the mis­takes and correct them.
All the stakholders in tourism development should safeguard the natural
enviroment with a view to achieving sound, continuous and sustainable economic
growth geared to satising equitably the needs and aspira­tions of present and
future genirations. Tourism infrastructure should be desinged and tourism
activities programmed in such a way as to protect the natural heritage composed of
ecosistems and biodiversity and to preserve indangered species of wildlife. Nature tourism and ecotourism are recognized as being
particulaly conducive to enriching and enhansing the standing of tourism, provided
they respect the natural heritage and locale populations.
10. Study the extracts from the Articles of the Global Code of Ethics for Tourism. Match them to their headings. There’s one extra heading.
