A group of students from a school in Zurich, Switzerland, visited the Tourism Department of Mallorca, located in La Misericordia, this week to learn firsthand about the island’s tourism policies and management.

The students were welcomed by Tourism Minister José Marcial Rodríguez, who held a meeting with them to explain the department’s operations and answer their questions about Mallorca’s tourism model. The visitors showed particular interest in topics such as job creation, the economic benefits of tourism, and the social challenges it presents, including access to housing and the strain on public services.
