Occitanie wishes to enhance its tourism sectors in a sustainable approach, highlighting sectors such as thermalism, outdoor activities, wine tourism, agritourism. The region also aims to position itself as a leader in decarbonized rail transport to offer environmentally friendly mobility solutions. To promote sustainable tourism, it seeks to coordinate stakeholders in order to harmonize communication objectives at the national and international levels. Access to information and leisure for local markets will be improved through collective strategies and appropriate tools. Accurate knowledge of the regional offer, including mobility and ancillary services, is essential for the attractiveness of the region.
