Global Accessible Travel Alliance
Bringing the travel industry together to advance accessible travel
Who we are?
The Global Accessible Travel Alliance (GATA) is a collaborative alliance of leading organizations across the global travel and events ecosystems working together to accelerate progress in accessible travel.
Around the world, significant work is already underway to improve accessibility. Industry associations, destinations, cruise lines, hotels, airports, tour operators, convention centers, event organizers, governments, and accessibility experts are each making important contributions.
However, many of these efforts occur independently. GATA exists to provide a forum where organizations can collaborate, align initiatives where appropriate, share knowledge, reduce unnecessary duplication, and identify opportunities to achieve greater impact together.
GATA is not intended to replace existing organizations or standards. Instead, seeks to strengthen the work already being done by connecting leaders across sectors.
