Testimonial

Dignitary speak:

Bo Keun Choi, Senior Officer, Regional Programme for Asia and the Pacific, World Tourism Organization (UNWTO):

“Globally, we crossed the mark of 1.3 billion travellers this year. The growth rate to be expected in the upcoming years for the travel and tourism industry is around 7%. India is one of the leading countries with almost 16% contribution to the industry. I appreciate SATTE’s contribution over the years in getting the industry together, and also its campaign I-Pledge, that promotes the cause of sustainable tourism, thereby giving us the opportunity to pledge for and promote sustainable tourism and create a better world to live in.”

The first panel discussion of the day ‘UNWTO: The relevance of thematic tourism routes in fostering regional collaboration and prosperity’ brought together stakeholders from across the table in a discussion focused on assessing the enormous opportunity and potential to develop transnational thematic tourism routes and challenges of linking the destinations of South Asia.
