摘要：Both EU countries and the European Commission underline the importance of tourism as an economic sector
generating employment, as well as its important contribution to GDP.
The objectives of EU tourism policy focus on three major fields:
1. tourists¡¯ free circulation and protection
2. activity framework in tourism professions
3. tourism regional development
The renewed European tourism policy, launched by the European Commission Communication on 17.04.2006,
underlines the necessity to formulate a harmonized political response to the challenges the European tourism is
faced with, and suggests the improvement of sector regulations, leading to an increased European
competitiveness.
Meanwhile, the Commission envisages a better use of available financial instruments, mainly the structural
funds. Also, in order to promote a sustainable tourism the Commission will make a proposal regarding Agenda
21 for a European tourism in 2007.
The main objective of the European policies regarding tourism is to improve the competitiveness of European
tourism industry and to generate more and better jobs, for a sustainable tourism development.
Romania¡¯s current situation is characterized by the lack of coherent policies and strategy regarding tourism
development, preventing our country¡¯s integration in line with European steps and the application of the
renewed tourism policy.
