new world heritage sites wont necessarily boost tourism
Tourism Update readers are fairly evenly split over whether South Africas newly-inscribed UNESCO World Heritage Sites will boost tourism to the country.
The new sites the Human Rights, Liberation and Reconciliation: Nelson Mandela Sites and The Pleistocene Occupation Sites in the Western Cape and KwaZulu-Natal were inscribed during the 46th session of the World Heritage Committee in New Delhi, India, which took place from July 21 to 31.
Responding to our latest poll, 44% of readers said that the inscriptions would not boost tourist arrivals to South Africa, while 36% said that they would. The remaining 20% of respondents selected Maybe.
Are women well-represented in tourism leadership? As South Africa marks Womens Month, now is a pertinent time to reflect on the progress made in the representation of women in positions of leadership within both the public and private sectors.
