WTTC Research
When (WTTC) was established in 1990, when the founding Members decided that the quantification of Travel & Tourism's impact on world economies would be the most important contribution they could make to achieve their goal of raising awareness among the industry’s policy leaders and decision-makers. The subsequent investment in research made a significant contribution to the development of the new international standard for Tourism Satellite Accounting (TSA) research, adopted in 2001 by the United Nations Statistical Commission. Through this type of economic research WTTC has been able to supply significant evidence for the Travel & Tourism industry of the potential of creating wealth and employment around the world.

Famous quotes containing the word research:
“Men talk, but rarely about anything personal. Recent research on friendship ... has shown that male relationships are based on shared activities: men tend to do things together rather than simply be together.... Female friendships, particularly close friendships, are usually based on self-disclosure, or on talking about intimate aspects of their lives.”
—Bettina Arndt (20th century)
