Dublin is focused on transforming into a more sustainable tourism destination that benefits everyone. The city has incorporated the UN Sustainable Development Goals and the UNWTO Sustainable Tourism definition into its tourism development strategies and frameworks. Additionally, in 2023, Fáilte Ireland, the national tourism development authority, has become an official UN Sustainable Development Goal ambassador, contributing to the promotion of sustainable tourism in the heart of Dublin city. Dublin is the first Irish city to sign the UN Glasgow Declaration on Sustainable Tourism development, providing the city with a structured roadmap and reference point to achieve sustainable tourism goals. Recognising the need for more progress, 1100 Dublin locals were recently surveyed to gauge their perception of Dublin as a sustainable tourism destination. Only 35% felt that Dublin currently meets this criterion. As a result, the city has made it a top priority to integrate tourism sustainability at the core of its programs.
