Zimbabwe didn’t just welcome us. It ignited us.

The dancing. The energy. The women in that room who refused to be held back by walls that should never have existed.

This is what the 2nd UN Tourism Regional Congress on Women’s Empowerment in Tourism in Africa looks like.
This is what empowerment done right feels like.

Mentorship is not a luxury. It is a necessity. And the world heard that — loud and clear.

From President Emmerson Mnangagwa to First Lady Dr. Auxillia Mnangagwa to Minister Barbara Rwodzi — this country showed up for its women.

And its women? They are flying.

To mark World Ocean Day, we're taking action. 🌊

Plastic pollution is one of the biggest threats facing tourism destinations today — especially our coasts and islands.

Join UNEP and UN Tourism for the second Global Tourism Plastics Initiative (GTPI) Technical Session.

Real implementation experiences. Practical tools. Circular solutions that work.

If you work in tourism, destination management, sustainability or circularity — this session is for you.

Walk away with practical reuse guidance, decision-making tools, and lessons learned from destinations already making the shift.

Approved by consensus. In force today.
Andorra has adopted a new General Tourism Law.

Why does that matter?

Because tourism doesn’t shape itself.

The new law strengthens quality, competitiveness, sustainability and the visitor experience while providing greater certainty for destinations, businesses and investors.

Congratulations to the Government of Andorra, the Ministry of Tourism and Commerce and Minister Jordi Torres Falcó for their leadership in advancing this milestone.

UN Tourism is proud to have supported this process through technical cooperation and strategic guidance, helping align tourism legislation with global priorities and visitor expectations.

The rules shape the game.

Andorra just changed theirs.

4 priorities. And a future shaped by the stories we choose to tell together.

At the 72nd Meeting of the UN Tourism Commission for Europe in 🇲🇹 Malta, our Secretary-General shared her vision — and why Europe is central to everything we are doing.

Bringing together 41 European Member States, the Commission drives smarter, fairer, and more sustainable tourism policy.

One region. One shared agenda.

Connected thinking for connected challenges.
