9th UNWTO Asia/Pacific Executive Training Programme on Tourism Policy and Strategy

Since 2006, the UNWTO has convened the Asia/Pacific Executive Training Programme on Tourism Policy and Strategy. This high level executive training programme provides a platform for policy makers to get together for exchanging ideas on current tourism issues. Through a series of lectures, group discussions, debates, and presentations, the training program seeks to provide a forum to assist senior officials of UNWTO members of Asia and the Pacific in gaining a better understanding of the latest trends in tourism management and provide a knowledge and experience sharing platform on good practices in successful policy and strategy formulation and implementation. The training programme enables participants to improve their strategic tourism management skills and, through the network of contacts, further develop these capacities going forward.

This year’s program, which is entitled Community Based Development and Tourism Recovery, is being once again financed by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism of the Republic of Korea will be held in Bohol, Philippines, from 28 April to 1 May 2015.
