The first round table on legal issues of tourism was held with international participation

The event was a hybrid event with 40 participants. The programme included presentations by renowned experts in tourism law from Austria, Poland, Slovakia and the Czech Republic. We also welcomed a representative of the Department of Tourism from the Ministry of Regional Development.

The planned changes to the European Directive on tour activities, the issue of guide services and the rules for their provision were discussed, and we also touched upon minority issues in relation to the development of tourism and its impact on local people and the preservation of traditions and culture.

The accompanying programme of the event included a tour of the school building focusing on its judicial past.
