Come January next year, the Ministry of Tourism is expected to engage in a national consultation in an effort to map out a new “inclusive and sustainable” tourism product for Barbados.
Minister of Tourism Senator Lisa Cummins made the announcement, pointing out that now was a “tremendous time” to transform the tourism sector.
Stating that work has already begun in her ministry towards the creation of a more sustainable tourism offering, Cummins gave the assurance that officials would be engaging all stakeholders in coming up with a master plan “for what the tourism future could look like”.
“Early in January we will be having a national consultation which is going to be able to help us launch what we call the inclusive tourism model for the future,” she told the recent Barbados Hotel and Tourism Association’s fourth quarterly general meeting.
