ENAT

ENAT (European Network for Accessible Tourism) is a non-profit association of tourism enterprises, organisations and individuals from the private, public and NGO sectors aimed at providing and endorsing services and products for accessible tourism in Europe. ENAT was set up in 2006 within the framework of the EC Disability Action Plan and was originally comprised of 9 founding members (partners), including VisitBritain and ONCE, from 6 European countries.

Although the organization has Europe as its primary concern for accessible tourism, it also welcomes members from other countries and continents. As of 2008, the organisation includes 435 registered members from 52 countries, representing over 300 national, European and global organisations.

Mission: to make European tourism destinations, products and services accessible to all visitors.

Its aims are to:


*Be open to all actors and stakeholders in the European tourism and disability sectors,
*Act as the focal point for promoting accessible tourism in Europe,
*Compile and distribute information,
*Support dialogue about disability and accessibility issues in tourism;
*Contribute to awareness-raising;
*Promote mainstreaming through targeted policy recommendations and actions that can improve tourism products and services for disabled tourists;
*Seek to improve the employment rate and conditions of disabled workers in the EU tourism sector.

To achieve those stated aims,

ENAT will work to foster a spirit of common purpose and will encourage partnerships for policy development and practical problem-solving, involving the tourism industry, public authorities, social partners and NGOs.
