The 2nd International Forum on Fair Tourism in the Mediterranean (FITS Med) is postponed to April 2011, following a recent cabinet reshuffle in Algeria and the creation of a new Ministry of Tourism and Handicrafts. The delay generated in the organisation of the Forum do not permit to reach the targets. Under these conditions, in agreement with the Chairman of the Algerian Organization Committee, the organizers had decided to postpone the Forum to April 2011.

The 2nd International Forum on Fair Tourism in the Mediterranean (FITS Med) would be held on 9 and 10 October 2010, in Zeralda, Algeria. It would be preceded by an international workshop on desert and oases tourism, to be held in Ghardaia, on 6 and 7 October 2010.

The Forum aims to promote a general discussion on the future of tourism in the Mediterranean. Best practices and propositions of solutions will particularly be discussed.
This year, the FITS Med will focus on the economic crisis and global warming and its consequences for tourism in the Mediterranean.

On 9 October, at 6:00 pm, a specific meeting would be dedicated to mediterranean local and regional authorities which develop, or wish to develop, partnerships of decentralized cooperation on the theme of tourism.
