UN World Heritage to form Tourism Advisory Panel

Friday, 25 Sep, 2006 0

Tourism Ventures 21 and UNESCO World Heritage are forming an advisory panel to encourage the protection and preservation of cultural and natural heritage sites around the world.

The panel will include players from government, travel and tourism, finance, academia, commerce and trade, facilities and infrastructure development, IT and communications, and national government organizations,” said Charles Kao, head of Tourism Ventures 21 and Publisher of TravelMole, who is the organizing coordinator for this project. “We are seeking volunteers who have insight, are forward thinking, problem solvers and leaders in their sectors to help evaluate and make recommendation for the World Heritage program in terms of policies, strategies, and action models.”

Currently, there are over 1,200 sites around the world that hold UNESCO’s World Heritage and Biosphere Reserves designation. Four corporate sponsors are also sought for the new venture. Nominations and applications to be a member on the Advisory panel, as well as interested corporate and government sponsors, should contact [email protected] for further details.
