Tourism and Rural Development: A Policy Perspective.

Tourism has high potential to stimulate economic growth and social change in rural areas because it contributes to local economies, support other products value chains, distributes benefits across both seasonal and geographic grounds, and promotes the conservation of cultural and natural heritage. Through the UNWTO Tourism for Rural Development Programme, the Organization seeks to enhance these and other opportunities that tourism can bring to rural areas. To devise adequate actions and develop impactful initiatives, it is essential to have solid knowledge and data to help support and monitor the evolution of this important agenda.

Nit dels ciris (Candle Night) in Vilafranca, Castelló, Valencian Country. Every year, in early August the village of Vilafranca celebrates this festival with more than 10,000 candles decorating the streets.

Vilafranca is located in Els Ports, a very rural area that is struggling with depopulation due to the lack of investment and, as a result, lack of opportunities for its inhabitants. Candle Night was created to shine a light of hope for the local population and to help make Vilafranca known in order to attract visitors and give economical opportunities to the area.
