As co-director of Equality in Tourism, Stroma also introduced the non-profit's work and the upcoming Gender Equality Champion of the Year Award 2026.

Stroma shared ways our project will support women workers, who are often among the most marginalised in the sector.

Our solutions include an industry wellbeing benchmarking tool, accessible legal handbooks, and improved representation in social dialogue: www.futourwork.eu/futourwork-w...

Insights from these interviews will help shape a Code of Conduct for the sector, helping employers, unions and platforms improve dialogue with workers, support their wellbeing, and create better conditions for unionisation. ✅
