Abstract

Migrantour contributes to spreading a culture of respect for the human rights of migrant communities in European cities by encouraging interactions of mutual respect between people with different origins. Since 2009, it has involved over 11,000 participants in the intercultural itineraries and more than 300 people as intercultural companions. Currently, new projects are under implementation to promote its methodology in rural areas and new cities. Thus, as it will be explained in the chapter, it can represent a successful study case where tourism contributes positively to human rights within the frame of interculturalism. The contribution is a part of a broader study examining the experience of Migrantour in Porta Palazzo and Barriera di Milano, two neighborhoods of the Italian town of Turin, under different grounds. The aim is to further contribute to the debate about the implications of the transformation of intercultural neighbourhoods into places of leisure and consumption for migrant communities.
