ECOTOURISM KENYA OPENS NOMINATIONS FOR ECO WARRIOR AWARDS 2015
(Posted 04th July 2015)
Nominations are now invited again for the ten categories which EcoTourism Kenya has set for their 2015 race to become the recipient of the Eco Warrior Award, one of Kenya’s most coveted trophies to take home.
Like last year will the award gala be held in conjunction with the Kenya Tourism Board’s Magical Kenya Travel Expo which this year takes place south of Mombasa at the equally award winning Diani beach on the 16th of October. This will be EcoTourism Kenya’s tenth award event, which over the years has become one of the tourism industry’s highlights on the social and business calendar.

Some added categories are available on the EcoTourism Kenya website such as Blogger of the Year and LMP Student of the Year. Only Kenyan registered companies and Kenya based individuals are eligible to be nominated, something worth to keep in mind when reading this elsewhere in Eastern Africa.
The Kenya Tourism Board has set an appropriate theme for their MKTE 2016 event, to which again some 150 hosted buyers as well as the international media will be invited to give the country maximum positive exposure and in particular showcase Kenya’s award winning beaches and a wide range of superb resorts located south of Mombasa. Prior to the main event will, as has been over the past two years, a symposium take place addressing pressing issues related to tourism and all aspects surrounding the industry.
‘Sustainable Tourism: Keeping the Magic Alive!’ is the 2016 headline for MKTE, entirely in line with EcoTourism Kenya’s own relentless drive to promote sustainability and eco-friendly operations, making for a symbiotic partnership from which both sides can benefit.
