Since its inception, the organization has become a key meeting point for the various stakeholders involved in tourism management in the Catalan capital. Over this decade, more than 150 sessions have been held, including plenaries and working groups, with the participation of 500 people and a hundred entities, totaling 7,500 hours of deliberation.
The study Participatory governance in the public management of tourism, prepared by the CETT-UB chair, positions the Barcelona model as the most robust in the country. The report highlights the institutional architecture of the CTiC compared to other European and Spanish cities, while noting future challenges such as increasing operational agility and cross-cutting decision-making.
During the plenary session, the city council highlighted the strategic commitment to management that protects the quality of life of residents. Recent initiatives were recalled, such as the Zona Bus 4.0, the expansion of High-Flow Areas (EGA), and the proposal to adjust the tourist tax for cruise ships, measures that seek to balance economic activity with citizen coexistence.
