Economic development and social return
Barcelona seeks to promote a sustainable and respectful visitor economy that supports the development of other economic sectors, with the primary goal of fostering the prosperity and well-being of its residents, while ensuring their right to the city.
Ensuring the economic development and social return of tourism activity is key to guaranteeing the sector's positive contribution to the growth and well-being of the city and its local community. This area is therefore essential to ensure the promotion of initiatives of interest in strategic areas for Barcelona, thus fostering a sustainable, innovative and quality local economic fabric.
This approach will boost the attraction of talent and the generation of quality tourism employment, as well as strengthening the links between tourism and the local community by contributing to balanced economic development and a positive social return for all citizens.
