Objective

The International Centres associated to the UN Tourism Academy (ICs) are Education & Training institutions that, with the support of their NTA, will become UN Tourism partner institutions for the development and implementation of Tourism Education and Training initiatives. Their purpose is to work as UN Tourism knowledge and training hubs, ensuring that the state-of-the-art knowledge and good practices available at UN Tourism are delivered under the format of workshops, seminars, or other education and capacity building modalities. These activites will be carried out under the guidance and supervision of the UN Tourism Academy.

Cooperation Framework

Within this framework, the International Centres are expected to host, on an annual basis, a minimum number of UN Tourism Academy activities (different formats and durations) and are also expected to guarantee the human and financial resources for this purpose. In order to fully meet the needs of all UN Tourism Members and the Tourism Sector as a whole, all activities within this cooperation framework must have a regional or international scope (either geographic or thematic).

Who can apply

Requirements

• To have (or be in the process of obtaining) at least 1 UN Tourism.TedQual Certified Programme and be endorsed by its National Tourism Administration.
