MISSION

The mission of the SITA observatory is to provide quality information through statistical, analytical, economic, business, and social methodologies to promote evidence-based decision-making and ensure public, fast, and free access to open tourism sector data.

CURRENT MONITORING PROCESSES

This axis seeks the introduction of technology-intensive processes in the tourism value chain, with the aim of fostering the sector's capacity for informed decision-making.
