IVORY COAST signs a convention with amforht to assist them in developing a sustainable tourism strategy
Ivory Coast (Côte d'Ivoire) asked AMFORHT to assist them in developing an ambitious tourism strategy. With its "Sublime Côte d'Ivoire" ('awe-inspiring Ivory Coast') road map, the West African country wants tourism to become its third economic development pole. The aim of this plan is to develop territories beyond the capital city of Abidjan, expand population's employability at all levels, and ensure a healthy Nation's GDP growth.
Sustainability, tourism and hospitality education and training will play a major part in the project success.
This is why Mr. Siandou Fofana, Ivory Coast Minister of Tourism, asked AMFORHT (a UNWTO affiliate) to assist them in making the country one of the top 5 African tourism destinations.
