3rd April 10.00 -11.00 (GMT + 1)

This Tourism Webinar is brought to you by AviaDev Africa and VoyagesAfriq Travel Media to help shape the policy direction of how tourism will be done post covid-19

The World Travel and Tourism Council (WTTC) says up to 50 million jobs could be lost because of the pandemic. The UNWTO in its latest assessment impact on Covid-19 said to expect a 20-30% fall in international tourist arrivals.

The economic impact of the pandemic cannot be overemphasized and in this webinar we will ask the following:

• Is this the perfect time to take practical steps towards intra-Africa travel?
• Are governments doing enough to support tourism-related businesses at their time of greatest need?
