In a bid to further establish its status as a world-class venue for international conferences and events, Rwanda is planning to host the eagerly anticipated World Travel and Tourism Council (WTTC) 2023 Global Summit in November.
According to a VoyagesAfriq report, Rwanda will be the first country in Africa to host the international organization. A resolution to this effect was made at the WTTC Global Summit, which took place in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, in December.
Government representatives, business titans, and professionals from the travel and tourism sector are all present at the WTTC Global Summit.
The world summit will take place between November 1 and 3 in Kigali, the capital of Rwanda. During a recent interview, Julia Simpson, President and Chief Executive Officer of WTTC, disclosed that Rwanda has progressed in the tourism and conservation of nature sectors.
She said: “In November, the WTTC will travel to Rwanda, where we’ll host a significant annual summit.
“Rwanda is an incredible example in Africa of a country that has done so much in the world of conservation, biodiversity, and protecting nature; we all know about Rwanda and the gorillas and they’ve done much more than that as well.
“Rwanda is now a really modern African country, is bringing in business travellers, there is a lot of innovations going on, so we are very proud to host a major conference there.’’
As the host of the WTTC Global Summit, Rwanda seeks to highlight its sustainable tourism model and the great impact it has on the environment, local communities, and the economy at large. Through many panel discussions, presentations, and workshops, participants will gain valuable insights into Rwanda’s conservation efforts, community-based tourism initiatives, and innovative strategies for responsible tourism management.
Also, the summit will provide a platform for Rwanda to exhibit its investment potential in the tourism sector. By revealing successful projects and investment opportunities, Rwanda aims to attract international investors that share the vision of sustainable tourism development. This event is expected to bring global attention to Rwanda’s tourism industry and foster collaborations and partnerships that can drive further growth and contribute to the country’s socio-economic development.
