Abstract

Objective. The purpose of the article is to highlight approaches to the assessment of safety in international tourism and to analyze the most and least safe countries in the world for traveling and conducting tourism business. Methods. In order to achieve the set goals and objectives, the following research methods were used: analysis and synthesis (to determine the safety components in the international rankings of countries in the world), comparative analysis, comparison (to determine the similarities and differences in the Top-10 most and least safe countries in the world for traveling and running a tourist business according to various international ratings), graphic and tabular methods (for a visual representation of statistical material). Results. Methodologies and approaches to measuring security and protection in international tourism proposed by the World Economic Forum and Institute for Economics & Peace are considered. The calculation methodology, description and sources of the “Safety and Protection” and “Health and Hygiene” indicators of The Travel & Tourism Development Index are given. The 10 most and least safe and reliable countries in the world to travel to in terms of “Safety and security” and “Health and hygiene” have been identified and analyzed. The methodology for calculating The Global Peace Index is given. In order to assess the safety of tourist travel and conducting tourist business in one or another state of the world, a description of the evaluation criteria and the definition of indicators that allow calculating the components of “Ongoing internal and international conflicts” and “Public safety” have been carried out. The 10 most and least peaceful countries according to the specified components were determined and analyzed. Fluctuations in the positions of the countries of the world on the four security components of The Travel & Tourism Development Index and The Global Peace Index ratings are clearly depicted and analyzed.
