For Australia’s $122 billion tourism industry, the pandemic has meant a complete shutdown – and international visitors might be locked out for years.
Townsville-based CQU researcher Dr Elena Konovalov explains how tourism operators are already preparing for staged return to business, and a pivot to focus on local travellers.
Dr Konovalov calls on Aussies to start thinking of local attractions for a travel “bucket list” to support the recovery, and looks at digital initiatives that are still connecting our biggest attractions with the rest of the world.
This is episode three of CQUniversity Commentary, a podcast and video series from CQUniversity Australia, focusing on issues around COVID-19, and how the global crisis impacts on our communities and lives.
