UN Tourism and Germany pave the way towards inclusive employment and accessibility

UN Tourism has joined the Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) to shift the mind-sets of destinations and businesses regarding workers and customers with disabilities. Putting inclusive tourism in the spotlight 1.3 billion people live with a significant disability worldwide, with 80% of them living in developing countries and emerging destinations. When people with disabilities do travel, they are accompanied by 2 to 3 other people. Including accessibility in a business strategy entails new sources of revenue and better economic performance. Yet despite progress in recent years, discrimination and other barriers still prevent people with disabilities from travelling or working in tourism. Many job applicants with disabilities don’t see tourism as a viable career path; Businesses are missing out on immense resources of workforce talent and new clients. Highlighting solutions for the inclusive employment and better access UN Tourism and BMZ came together at ITB Berlin 2025 to raise awareness of the wide range of benefits of accessible tourism; They called for a more inclusive sector through international cooperation - to create more jobs, open up travel to more people and build more resilient communities. A tourism that: fosters awareness of the benefits of implementing accessibility, not as a charity - but as a long-term investment; engages in social and digital innovation benefitting people and communities; and better serves this billion-dollar market of consumers and employees. The joint event at ITB brought together industry leaders to discuss approaches for creating better workplaces and services in tourism for all, in developed and emerging economies. A report is also planned to showcase good practices promoted in Berlin; These include examples from Albania, Austria, Ecuador, Germany, India, Jordan and Morocco, as well as international success stories championed by the World Sustainable Hospitably Alliance, Amadeus, European Network for Accessible Tourism and European Disability Forum. The recommendations, to be also published within the report, will focus on: working with end-users with disabilities to understand their needs; building a business case of accessibility; upskilling employees; and adapting job descriptions and workplace environments so people with disabilities can directly apply to work in hospitality.

IATA: air cargo demand rose by 3.2 percent in January 2025

The International Air Transport Association (IATA) released its global air cargo data for January 2025, noting growth of 3.2 percent in the first month of the year. Total demand, measured in cargo tonne-kilometers (CTK), rose by 3.2 percent compared to January 2024 levels, marking an 18th consecutive month of growth. Capacity, measured in available cargo tonne-kilometers (ACTK), increased by 6.8% compared to January 2024. According to IATA director-general Willie Walsh: "January marked 18 consecutive months of growth for air cargo, but the month’s 3.2 percent year-on-year growth is a moderation from double-digit peaks in 2024. Similarly, yields, while still above January 2024 levels, saw a 9.9 percent decline from December as cargo load factors also declined by an average of 1.5 percentage points.” While external factors such as trade growth, declining fuel costs and expanding e-commerce remain positive for air cargo, Walsh pointed out that it is important to closely watch the evolution of market conditions at this time. In particular, the wild card is the potential for tariff-driven trade policies from the current US administration. Factors considered in January Several factors in the operating environment should be noted, namely: Year-on-year, industrial production rose 2.6 percent in December. Global goods trade grew for a ninth consecutive month, reporting a 3.3 percent increase in December; The Purchasing Managers Index (PMI) for global manufacturing output was above the 50-mark for January, indicating growth. At 50.62, this was the highest reading since July 2024. The PMI for new export orders rose to 49.37, remaining just shy of the 50-mark, which is the growth threshold; and In January, consumer inflation in the US and in Europe both rose by 0.1 percentage point to three percent and 2.8 percent respectively. Chinese consumer inflation rebounded to 0.5 percent in January, after progressively falling to 0.1 percent in the previous four months. Regional performance in January 2025 Asia-Pacific airlines saw 7.5% year-on-year demand growth for air cargo in January. Capacity increased by 10.9% year-on-year. North American carriers saw 5.3% year-on-year demand growth for air cargo in January. Capacity increased by 7.5% year-on-year. European carriers saw 1.3% year-on-year demand growth for air cargo in January.

Latin American carriers saw an 11.2% year-on-year increase in demand growth for air cargo in January, the strongest growth among the regions. Capacity increased 10.6% year-on-year. African airlines saw a 3.4% year-on-year decrease in demand for air cargo in January. Capacity increased by 5.4% year-on-year.
