Abstract  This book exposes the many violations of human rights that occur as a direct result of tourism. Through an examination of case studies from all over the world, the report highlights how tourism regularly transgresses key articles of the UN Declaration on Human Rights and other important UN rights conventions. It challenges the UK Government and industry to recognise that human rights are a fundamental element of any sustainable approach to development – including tourism development, and calls for action to ensure their protection.
