Share
Tourism KwaZulu-Natal (TKZN) and AfricaIgnite in partnership with Airbnb on Tuesday launched the Airbnb Academy in KwaZulu-Natal.
The Academy was designed by Airbnb to encourage healthy tourism and entrepreneurship in rural and under-resourced communities across the African continent.
It helps locals outside the usual tourist hotspots build the digital skills they need to tap into the tourism economy by offering home-stays or experiences that can generate additional income.
“We are always looking for innovative ways to ensure that our emerging tourism entrepreneurs can fully participate in the mainstream tourism sector and more job opportunities are created through the sector, acting chief executive officer of TKZN, Phindile Makwakwa said.
