Welcome to the opening episode of Season 4 of Invisible Cities Talks, titled Social Tourism Impact in Europe.
In this episode, we are joined by Teresa from Pragulic, a social enterprise based in Prague, Czech Republic, that uses tourism to challenge public perceptions of homelessness. Pragulic trains and supports individuals with lived experience of homelessness to become tour guides, offering unique city tours that foster empathy, awareness, and social change.
Discover how Pragulic was founded, the challenges faced in creating a sustainable social enterprise, and the impact their tours have on both guides and visitors. Learn about their recruitment and training process, how they engage with local communities, and their future ambitions for expanding their work.
This conversation is led by Silvana, a guide from Invisible Cities Glasgow, who brings her own insights into the transformative power of social tourism. Tune in to hear inspiring stories of resilience, the importance of shifting societal attitudes, and the role of tourism in creating meaningful employment opportunities.
Join us for this exciting start to Season 4 as we explore the social impact of tourism across Europe!
