UNWTO Partners Spanish Company Isdefe

Research, best practices and new methodologies for tourism development are at the centre of an agreement signed between the UNWTO and Spanish public company Isdefe (Ingeniería de Sistemas para la Defensa de España).

The agreement aims to develop pilot projects based on a range of subjects including connectivity, energy in tourism and development assistance.

The UNWTO will draw on the expertise of Isdefe in providing engineering services to the Spanish Administration and international public bodies.

“We are proud to join our efforts to the work that UNWTO carries out in support of one of the leading economic activities of our time,” said Francisco Quereda Rubio, Chief Executive Officer of Isdefe. “This agreement consolidates our commitment to overall UN goals of sustainability and corporate social responsibility, which we subscribed already in 2009 when we joined the Global Compact of the United Nations.”
