Meeting of Prof Shahbaz Khan and the UNESCO Chair on Sustainable Tourism at UNESCO Designated Sites

On 26 May 2022, Professor Shahbaz Khan, Director and Representative of UNESCO Beijing Office, and the Culture Unit met with the Professor Zhang Chaozhi, holder of the UNESCO Chair on Sustainable Tourism at UNESCO Designated Sites, and his team at the School of Tourism Management, Sun Yat-sen University.

The UNESCO Chair on Sustainable Tourism at UNESCO Designated Sites was established on 27 May 2020, with an aim to establish an integrated network and platform for research, capacity building, information sharing and normative instrument development in the field of sustainable tourism research, and to foster collaboration and exchange among researchers and practitioners in sustainable tourism development around the world. This is one of the two UNESCO Chairs hosted by Sun Yat-sen University.

Sun Yat-sen University, which traces back to the National Kwangtung University founded by Dr. Sun Yat-sen in 1924, is one of the leading universities in China located in Guangdong Province across five campuses in Guangzhou, Zhuhai and Shenzhen Municipalities. The University’s School of Tourism Management, established in 2004, was the first program in China to grant PhD degrees in tourism management.

Prof Khan acknowledged the strong collaborations between UNESCO and the Chair, and highlighted the Chair as one of the best practices in linking with UNESCO programs and getting the value of working with UNESCO. The collaborations include the “Panda Ambassador” initiative on heritage education and sustainable livelihood and authorship of the volume on Tourism Management at World Heritage Sites in China in the publication series “China World Heritage Capacity Building Manuals”. The parties also discussed potential future cooperation, in particular within the framework of the 50th Anniversary of the Convention Concerning the Protection of the World Cultural and Natural Heritage, and in furthering heritage educational and awareness raising activities for multi-designated sites, i.e. sites that are in more than one UNESCO designated site networks, in the Asia-Pacific region and globally.
