In recent years, experiencing an indigenous culture has become a top priority for travellers seeking deeper connections and unique adventures. However, ensuring these experiences are genuinely authentic and respectful requires more than just visiting indigenous communities – it demands a tourism approach by Indigenous People, not simply about them.
Join us for this insightful webinar as we explore the crucial role indigenous communities play in creating sustainable, respectful, and authentic tourism experiences. We will discuss key protocols and the importance of ownership to ensure that indigenous-led tourism benefits local people and their cultures, while delivering memorable, enriching experiences for travellers.
Our featured speaker, Sebastien Desnoyers Picard, Vice-President of the Indigenous Tourism Association of Canada (ITAC), will be joined by a panel of indigenous leaders from across Latin America. Together, they will shed light on the groundbreaking efforts of Destination Original Indigenous Tourism (DO-IT), a global association dedicated to uniting the world’s indigenous tourism industry under one roof. This movement aims to amplify the presence and voice of indigenous tourism on a global scale, promoting both cultural integrity and economic sustainability.
This is a must-attend webinar for anyone committed to promoting authentic, ethical, and sustainable tourism. Don’t miss this opportunity to hear how indigenous tourism can be a powerful tool for cultural preservation and economic empowerment – when it is driven by those who know it best.
