“UNWTO’S new vision is about making tourism smarter, more competitive and responsible. Lebanon stands to benefit from this new approach, especially in light of the surge in high-tech companies the country is experiencing, which could prove an important avenue for further tourism development. I encourage Lebanon to facilitate investment in technologies that have the potential to bring positive disruption and sustainable, inclusive growth to the country’s tourism sector. To that end, we are establishing a comprehensive development vision for tourism, making it a policy priority and strengthening capacity through meaningful partnerships.”
