Hosted by the Government of Botswana through the Botswana Tourism Organisation in collaboration with Africa Tourism Partners, UNWTO and AfCFTA, the 6th Africa Tourism Leadership Forum and Awards was a resounding success. Held from 04 to 06 October at the Grand Palm International Convention Centre in Gaborone Botswana, ATLF 2023 was preceded by Intra-Africa Travel and Business to Business Exchange meetings, Women in Tourism and Tourism Entrepreneurship Masterclasses that were delivered by UNISA and international MICE knowledge partners.

 

 

As part of the ATLF 2023 success story, it is worth noting that the AfCFTA hosted inaugural AfCFTA Forum on Tourism, Creatives, and Cultural Industries simultaneously with the Africa Tourism Leadership Forum and Awards 2023. The AfCFTA Protocol on Trade in Services is a platform that celebrates dynamic sectors, recommend solutions and advances Africa’s economic competitiveness through sustainable tourism and cultural development and seeks to ignite intra-African trade and empowerment, reinforcing a unified vision for a culturally enriched Africa.
