Calling on all women in tourism
%7B2c01a909-d112-4cb1-a285-ee554aeafd77%7D_p19002_1x1.gif
With our goal of #makingtravelhappenagain, Africa Travel Week has joined forces with the South Africa is Travel Ready movement. Together, we are calling on all women in tourism to stand together as we lobby for the phased re-opening of our borders.

The mission: Submit one image of yourself (and/or staff) showing the message of #IAMTOURISM

CASE STUDY: Voucher campaigns
%7B2c01a909-d112-4cb1-a285-ee554aeafd77%7D_p19002_1x1.gif
We knew that people needed something to look forward to and dream about during lockdown, even though they had little money to spare on luxuries. We also understood that our clients needed to generate an income during a time when they couldn’t take bookings. The answer was simple; we needed to launch a voucher campaign accessible to Mount High’s audience while also profitable to the brand.

The pandemic and tourism in Africa
%7B2c01a909-d112-4cb1-a285-ee554aeafd77%7D_p19002_1x1.gif
The pandemic has hit Africa’s tourism too hard. A crisis which is depriving holidaymakers of their holidays is depriving hosts of their livelihoods. The risks and challenges of permitting travel and tourism to reopen are large; governments have to balance the public health and unemployment risks. Harold Goodwin explores what we can do.
