Tuesday, June 20, 2023

The result of the four rounds of deliberations regarding the worldwide tourism division will happen in the Goa Roadmap for Tourism announcement, which would be declared during the culmination of the G20 Tourism Working Group conference starting in Panaji today.

V Vidyawati, the Secretary of Tourism with the Union tourism ministry said that five important areas have
been recognized following the thoughts exchanged in three meetings held before: green tourism,
digitalization, skill expansion, cultivating tourism MSMEs and destination management.

Vidyawati said that Goa roadmap is created around these five primacies. These urgencies are vital building
blocks for hastening the evolution of the tourism segment and attaining the goals for 2030 sustainable
development objectives.

Delegates from around the world reached Goa on Sunday before the G20 Tourism Working Group summit
and tourism ministerial meeting. Authorities think that over 150 delegates would take part in these seminars. In addition to G20 member nations, numerous other countries have been requested as well, accompanied by several state governments and tourism organizations. While Russia will be taking part, China would be skipping the conferences.

Besides the official discussions on the G20 platform, various corresponding discussions would also happen, principally on cruise tourism.
