National survey on tourism for neurodivergent individuals led by the State University of Amazonas

A new survey on accessible tourism for neurodivergent individuals has been launched by Brazil's Ministry of Tourism in partnership with the State University of Amazonas.

A groundbreaking survey focusing on accessible tourism for neurodivergent individuals has been initiated by Brazil's Ministry of Tourism, in collaboration with the Mais Acesso project from the State University of Amazonas (UEA). This survey is open for participation until February 28 and aims to gather essential data online that will serve as a foundation for a Good Practices Guide aimed at promoting inclusive service within the tourism sector.

The Minister of Tourism, Gustavo Feliciano, emphasized the importance of democratizing tourism to ensure that everyone can travel with dignity, autonomy, and security. This initiative underscores a commitment to inclusivity and reflects a broader effort to incorporate the voices of neurodivergent individuals into public policy development, thereby enhancing accessibility across the country.

The data collected will not only inform the development of public policies but also improve the overall quality of service provided in the tourism industry, ensuring that it becomes more flexible and responsive to the needs of neurodivergent travelers. This effort is part of a larger trend towards creating a more inclusive environment in tourism, aligning with global best practices and addressing the specific needs of diverse populations.
