28^th September 2022 – The G20 Tourism Ministries meeting at the 2022 Tourism Ministerial Meeting in Nusa Dua, Bali, agreed on the Bali Guidelines as a guide for G20 member countries and international organizations in promoting the recovery of global tourism.

The Minister of Tourism and Creative Economy (Menparekraf), Sandiaga Uno, said that the Bali Guidelines are an agreed document that is fundamental to the revival of a more inclusive and sustainable tourism sector.

The Bali Guidelines will be brought to the summit of the G20 Summit from 15^th to 16^th November 2022 for follow-up and forwarded to the next G20 led by India. The Guidelines contain five action plans which were previously discussed in the 1^st and 2^nd Tourism Working Group. The plan has been discussed for more than a year with the G20 member countries and the UNWTO (World Tourism Organization).

The five lines of action in the Bali Guidelines are human capital involving jobs, skills, entrepreneurship, and education.

The first point is related to how human resources in tourism are able to see the needs and wants of the market, create new job opportunities, and be able to bring added value from their products or services.

The second is innovation, digitalization, and the creative economy. This point focuses on how the community is able to be more innovative, creative, and adaptive in entering the digital economy ecosystem order so that it can reach a wider market.

Third is women and youth empowerment, where the empowerment of women and the younger generation plays an important role in the future recovery and resilience of the tourism sector and creative economy.

According to the Lt. Deputy for Institutional Resources of the Ministry of Tourism and Creative Economy, Frans Teguh, attention to the youth and women in the tourism sector must be able to give a chance to the millennials and women.

The fourth action focuses on climate action, biodiversity conservation, and a circular economy, in which the use of energy, land, air and food resources in the tourism sector can reduce carbon emissions.

The last point covers governance and investment, with a focus on creating more wise tourism policies and measures to support the four points of the line of action.
