Porto’s City Council aims to transform tourism through a sustainable and diversified plan. The project focuses on balancing growth and local needs, involving strategic partners to promote harmonious development in the city.

"At the Porto City Hall, we are fully aligned with the concept of building a better future." This was the premise with which the Councilor for Tourism and Internationalization gave, during the international meeting BOOST - Building Better Tourism, at Casa da Música, the news of the launch of "Yours Truly, Porto", the map that will show the world new narratives for a vision of the sustainable future of the destination.

For Catarina Santos Cunha, "the key word is indeed 'better'." "Tourism cannot be seen as a threat. It is an opportunity for economic, social, and cultural growth," states the councilor, certain that this path is traveled by "building better tourism."
