Statistical Framework for Measuring the Sustainability of Tourism

The Statistical Framework for Measuring the Sustainability of Tourism (SF-MST) is an organizing structure for integrating statistics on the economic, environmental and social dimensions of sustainable tourism. The complete SF-MST will be submitted to the UN Statistical Commission (UNSC) following an active process of research, discussion and consultation across multiple experts, sectors and stakeholders (Expert Group on MST).

A new version of the Statistical Framework for Measuring the Sustainability of Tourism was prepared for the Expert Group on MST, December 2022
