The inaugural UN Tourism Africa & Americas Summit, set for 3-5 October 2024 in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic, marks a significant step in international tourism collaboration. Organised by UN Tourism and the Dominican Republic’s Ministry of Tourism, this landmark event will unite key stakeholders from both continents to explore shared challenges and opportunities in the tourism sector.

The summit aims to deepen connections between Africa and the Americas, regions rich in cultural heritage and biodiversity. High-level discussions will focus on sustainability, innovation, investment, and cultural exchange, with tourism leaders and ministers from both continents in attendance.

Sustainability features prominently on the agenda, addressing issues such as climate change, biodiversity loss, and cultural heritage protection. The event will also cover post-pandemic recovery, green tourism investments, and digital transformation through panels, workshops, and networking sessions.

By hosting this summit, the Dominican Republic showcases its commitment to promoting tourism cooperation. The event represents a crucial step in leveraging tourism for economic development and cultural diplomacy, positioning Africa and the Americas as leading global destinations for authentic, sustainable travel experiences.
