Keywords:
security, protection, global tourism, international tourism, rating of countries of the world, COVID-19, risksSynopsis
The methodologies and approaches to measuring security and security in global tourism, proposed by the international organizations International SOS and the World Economic Forum, as well as The Institute for Economics & Peace, are considered.
4 rating scales of the countries of the world by the international organization International SOS were highlighted using the interactive Travel Risk Map on risks to the health and security of tourists and travelers, namely: “COVID-19 domestic operations impact scale”, “COVID-19 inbound travel impact scale”, “Medical risk ratings scale”, “Security risk rating scale”.
The calculation methodology, full descriptions and sources of indicators of pilars “Security and Security” and “Health and Hygiene” of Travel & Tourism Development Index are given. Identified and analyzed the 10 most and least safe and reliable countries in the world to travel on pillars "Security and Security" and "Health and Hygiene" in the Travel & Tourism Development Index. The distribution of the sub-regions of the world according to the indicated components has been carried out.
The Global Peace Index framework and the methodology for its calculation are given. A map of the distribution of the countries of the world according to the Global Peace Index has been constructed. To assess the security of a tourist trip and conduct a tourism business in a particular state of the world, the criteria for evaluating and determining indicators are described that allow calculating the “Ongoing Domestic and International Conflict” and “Societal Security and Security” domains by Global Peace Index. 10 most and least peaceful countries were identified and analyzed by “Ongoing Domestic and International Conflict” and “Societal Security and Security” domains.
