Abstract

Tourism is among the fastest-growing industries in all corners of the world. It brings substantial economic benefit but at the same time could become an issue of political and civic concern to many world-famous cities, heritage sites and even to whole nations. In the recent PASCAL seminar “Making Learning Happen [2],” held at UCL, London on the 4th of May 2018, I raised a discussion topic pertaining to the scope of mutual learning among tourists and residents of cities, which connected for some in the room. I thought I should write a bit more to get the discussion going beyond this PASCAL event.
