Kenya Seeks Enhanced Tourism Collaboration Ahead of Global Summit
In a significant move to strengthen regional tourism ties, Cabinet Secretary for Tourism and Wildlife, Rebecca Miano EGH, met with Mr. Cuthbert Ncube, President of the African Tourism Board, to discuss collaborative efforts between African nations. The meeting took place this morning in Miano’s office, where both leaders engaged in extensive discussions about leveraging tourism as a key driver of economic growth across the continent.
This dialogue is particularly timely, as Kenya prepares to participate in the ITIC Global Tourism Investment Summit in London, where it will highlight investment opportunities within its tourism sector. Miano emphasized the importance of this summit in showcasing Kenya’s diverse offerings and attracting international investments.
“Africa is ready to tell its own story to the world,” Miano stated. “Through these partnerships, we can effectively showcase the continent’s rich heritage and limitless potential on a global stage.”
The meeting underscored the growing recognition among African nations of the need for unified efforts in promoting tourism. With vast cultural, historical, and natural resources at its disposal, Africa aims to position itself as a premier destination for travelers worldwide.
As Kenya prepares for the summit, the discussions with Ncube signal a proactive approach to building strategic alliances that can enhance the continent’s tourism profile and facilitate sustainable growth.
