Diplomacy will also play a decisive role in radical tourism and its public governance: this is the message that emerged during the 1st UNICARTourism International Conference at the University of Calabria (Arcavacata of Rende - Cosenza, Italy) from 18 to 19 December 2020, with the COVID-19 pandemic still looming over travel and relationships. Roberto Galanti (Honorary Consul of the Republic of Moldova) recalled the consistent presence of Italians in a small state like Moldova. “The tourist of the roots is a sort of investor even if not necessarily of an economic nature: he is an ambassador of the territories. We must not be jealous but rather happy with an exchange of beauties and traditions: some of these are also similar between Italy and Moldova. We must therefore intercept a growing share of tourists also from states like the Moldovan one”, explained Galanti. Riccardo Milici (Ambassador A L of the Republic of Liberia in Italy) spoke about the tourist prospects of a country located in West Africa such as Liberia, therefore also theoretically outside mainstream tourism or news programs where classic tourism can find meeting points with the return one. Giovanni Maria De Vita (Head of Office I of the General Directorate for Italians Abroad of the MAECI) explained that, about roots tourism, "in reality it is about those who live abroad but have maintained a link with Italy, built through testimonies or habits handed down for example in the family“. “This form of tourism has important advantages for the territories: first of all, the promotion of work activities outside the mainstream circuit and which can concern, for example, small villages with low rates of economic growth and a strong depopulation; the second advantage is in the search for sustainable tourism, therefore respecting the artistic, real estate and cultural heritage“.
