CONFERENCE HIGHLIGHTS

CONFERENCE OVERVIEW

CONFERENCE

Research travel, as a new type of experience combining education and travel, is ushering in unprecedented development opportunities. With modern families increasingly pursuing higher quality education for their children, research travel, with its unique educational value and entertainment aspects, has become an ideal choice to meet the diverse growth needs of both parents and children. This trend indicates the immense potential and development space of the research travel market.

Moreover, the integration of the research travel industry is not limited to the combination of tourism and education sectors. It involves deepening inter-industry collaboration, integrating diverse resources, and forming a richer, more efficient research travel ecosystem. This cross-sector integration model helps promote the sustainable development of the entire research travel industry chain.

Sustainability is the core concept of research travel development. While promoting research travel, we must adhere to the principles of environmental protection and social responsibility, advocating for green and responsible travel practices. This respect for the natural environment and return to the original intention of education aims to contribute to the comprehensive growth of children and the sustainable development of future society.
