Angola’s tourism sector is expected to receive a boost in its management and structural reform part of the sector following a memorandum of understanding signed with the World Tourism Organization (UNWTO).

The MOU signed on the margins of the first ministerial conference on Air Transport and Tourism in Africa in Santa Maria, Cabo Verde will see UNWTO supporting its member state in the areas of heritage management, product development, sustainability labelling and investments.

Minister of Tourism of Angola – Mrs. Ângela Bragança and UNWTO Secretary General Zurab Pololikashvili signing the agreement

The Secretary General of UNWTO Zurab Pololikashvili signed for the organization while the Angola’s Minister of Tourism Angela Braganca inked on behalf of her country.

The Minister also recently signed a similar agreement with Spain’s Ministry of Tourism for technical support.

Angola’s tourism sector has been on the rise with significant developments in the sector. The sector Minister of Tourism in the third quarter of 2018 launched the tourism and cultural tour guidebook for the Zaire region. This was coming after the listing of Mbanza Kongo as world heritage list.
The government has already begun the process of opening up to Africa with visa waiver for citizens of some African countries. Citizens of Botswana, Mauritius, Seychelles, Zimbabwe and Rwanda are the latest African countries to travel to the Southern African country without a visa.
