Haiti: Integrating small-scale artisans into tourism value chain
May 4, 2015
PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti – Haiti welcomed more than one million visitors last year. Almost half of them were long-stay tourists, while over 600,000 were cruise-ship passengers who visited the magnificent beaches in Labadee, along the same coasts where Christopher Columbus landed in 1492. Tourism in Haiti is certainly on the rise, with 20% more long-stay tourists than in 2013. Its rich cultural heritage and festivals make northern Haiti the ideal location to benefit from this growth. With its paved, tranquil, palm-tree lined roads where residents stroll or play dominoes, the small commune of Milot is the gateway to the National History Park. At the end of the main street lie the ruins of Sans-Souci Palace, against a verdant backdrop where young people study in the shade, perched on the old stones.
