UNWTO Names its Best Tourism Villages 2023
Samarkand, Uzbekistan, 18 October 2023 – The World Tourism Organization (UNWTO)
has announced its list of Best Tourism Villages 2023. The accolate recogonizes villages that
are leading in nurturing rural areas and preserving landscapes, cultural diversity, local
values, and culinary traditions.
In this third edition 54 villages from all regions were selected from almost 260
applications. A further 20 villages have joined the Upgrade Programme, and all 74
villages are now part of the UNWTO Best Tourism Villages Network. The villages were
named during the UNWTO General Assembly, taking place this week in Samarkand,
Uzbekistan.
“Tourism can be a powerful force for inclusivity, empowering local communities and
distributing benefits across regions,” emphasizes UNWTO Secretary-General Zurab
Pololikashvili. “This initiative acknowledges villages that have harnessed tourism as a
catalyst for their development and well-being.”
A global network of local communities
Launched in 2021, the Best Tourism Villages by UNWTO initiative is part of the
UNWTO Tourism for Rural Development Programme. The Programme works to foster
development and inclusion in rural areas, combat depopulation, advance innovation
and value chain integration through tourism and encourage sustainable practices.
As in previous editions, the villages are evaluated under nine key areas:
1. Cultural and Natural Resources
2. Promotion and Conservation of Cultural Resources
3. Economic Sustainability
4. Social Sustainability
5. Environmental Sustainability
6. Tourism Development and Value Chain Integration
7. Governance and Prioritization of Tourism
8. Infrastructure and Connectivity
9. Health, Safety, and Security
The initiative comprises three pillars:
Best Tourism Villages by UNWTO: Recognizes outstanding rural tourism destinations
with accredited cultural and natural assets, a commitment to preserving communitybased values, and a clear commitment to innovation and sustainability across economic, social, and environmental dimensions.
Best Tourism Villages by UNWTO Upgrade Programme: Supports villages on their
journey to meet recognition criteria, helping in areas identified as gaps during evaluation.
The Best Tourism Villages Network: a space for exchanging experiences and good practices, learning, and opportunities among its members, and it is open to contributions of experts and public and private sector partners engaged in the promotion of tourism as a driver for rural development.
The Network enlarges every year and aims at becoming the largest global rural network: with the announcement today of these 74 new members, 190 villages are now part of this unique Network.
