In addition to outlining the fundamental significance of the GCET, the session emphasized the growing need for research on sustainable tourism.
It was also reported that in March 2025, Osaka University of Tourism successfully renewed its Tourism Education Quality (TedQual) certification, which is granted by the United Nations.
