Cup of 2014 can leverage tourism, experts conclude

"Therefore, we need massive investment in skills of the workforce and improving the infrastructure of cities," the senator considered the Tocantins. Among the proposals is the formation of a platform for tourism, including the establishment of "S" tourism, with the establishment of SEStur and SENAtur, along the lines of SESC and SENAI.

According to the professor at the University of São Paulo (USP) and member of the National Council of Tourism Ministry of Tourism, Mario Carlos Beni, or 1% of the workforce tourist, required to perform the Cup, is properly trained for a event of the magnitude of a soccer world championship. The same happened with the conditions of the cities that sediarão the games. "There are few destinations that are rigorously prepared for this megaevento, even the twelve cities where the games will happen." But the chairman of the National Confederation of Tourism (CNTur), Nelson Pinto de Abreu, undertook to act for the protection of tourism with sustainability, including social actions for the eradication of sex tourism. "We will work to form a large network of tourism involving several cities to receive 600 thousand people, which is an estimate of the Ministry of Tourism," Nelson said of Abreu.

The CNTur has plans to include the disabled and those who are in the third age in the tourist, not only as users, but mainly as workers in the sector. Senator Leomar Quintanilha, author of the request to conduct the hearing, spoke of their hope in the exploitation of the elderly and the experience we accumulate in the tourist industry.
