Biographie de Josquin Barré

Josquin Barré, the son of a painter and grandson of an architect from Nantes, fell in the cauldron of culture the day he was born in 1949. This predisposition, usefully complemented by a peripatetic and cosmopolitan education, naturally inclined him towards further education and a career in the tourism industry. He worked in a number of roles including hospitality, the planning and sale of travel and holiday packages.
He then addded communication-based jobs to the range of his skills, first as a journalist and then as columnist in the industry's press. From 1980, anticipating major changes that would result from the merging of the information technology and telecommunications, a became a consultant in tourismatics (a neologism he invented) and in the fields of tourism organization, strategy and marketing channels.
A speaker and trainer, he is the author of the methodological guide VENDRE LE TOURISME CULTUREL, a benchmark publication for local government executives, cultural heritage managers, projects promoters and event organizers. His "report from the future" THE STAR OF THE LEVANT is the story of twelve Middle-Eastern States which have come together to form the Community of the Levant. This geopolitical fiction is also a critical counter-model of the European Union.
