The IGLTA Foundation's 2025 impact report sets out the year's key activities across global advocacy, regional development and research, framed around six strategic pillars for equitable tourism growth.
The report opens with high-level diplomatic engagement, including representation at UN Tourism and the Human Rights Council in Geneva, and strategic meetings with government ministers in South America. It then covers three regional programmes: the third annual LGBTQ+ Travel Symposium in India, held in partnership with the Keshav Suri Foundation; the EQUAL Africa programme at WTM Africa in Cape Town; and partnership activity with the European LGBTQ+ Travel Alliance across Eastern Europe.
On innovation, the report details the launch of the LGBTQIA+ Travel Innovators programme, co-funded with the TUI Care Foundation, which supports 27 entrepreneurs from 20 countries. It also covers the expansion of the Emerging Destinations and Communities network to 55 global members, and the launch of the Trans and Gender Diverse Traveler Guide.
For DMOs working on inclusive destination development and LGBTQ+ market positioning, the report is the authoritative annual benchmark on how the global inclusive tourism sector is organising, investing and advocating at policy level.
