The World Tourism Organization (UNWTO)in partnership with the Ministry for Tourism, Civil Aviation, Port and Marine of Seychelles, began to develop and strengthen the country’s Tourism Statistical System and the Tourism Satellite Account (TSA).
The project which will be implemented over a three-year period (2019-2021), will include various activities which will focus primarily on documenting tourism statistics, measurement of basic tourism data, establishment/strengthening of the Inter-Institutional platform and capacity building development.
During this first mission, a pilot Cruise Tourism Survey was launched and a Workshop on Tourism Statistics and the TSA was given to stakeholders to familiarize them with concepts and methodologies that can further strengthen Seychelles’ Tourism Statistical System.
