  "summary": "The World Tourism Event (Wte) is an international trade fair dedicated to the promotion of UNESCO World Heritage sites, taking place annually in different locations. This year, the event returns to Assisi for its 17th edition, coinciding with the celebrations for the 800th anniversary of Saint Francis of Assisi's death. The Wte aims to intertwine the Franciscan values of peace, cultural dialogue, environmental protection, and sustainability with tourism related to World Heritage sites. The event brings together UNESCO sites, international buyers, and the public, with representation from markets such as France, Spain, the UK, Germany, the Netherlands, Scandinavian countries, Austria, Switzerland, and the United States. A particular focus is placed on responsible and sustainable tourism, with the Wte showcasing the potential of UNESCO sites as a catalyst for local economic development, cultural preservation, and community engagement.",
