Another fun fact on :

Did you know that the Zambezi River basin is larger than the Sahara Desert and the part that flows through on the Zimbabwe side, particularly Mana Pools, is the longest continuous stretch of wildlife that can be seen on the whole length of the Zambezi River.

TOURISM KICKS OFF POST COVID 19 IMPACT ASSESSMENT

Today sees the beginning of the Zimbabwe Tourism Authority's comprehensive Covid-19 Pandemic Impact Assessment Stakeholder Consultation workshops around the country and today we're in Bulawayo. These workshops are supported by Agence Française de Développement (“AFD”) in collaborarion with BDO. The assessment is part of the implementation of
the National Tourism Recovery and Growth Strategy that was launched by Government in
2020.

The tourism sector is arguably the hardest hit sector by COVID-19 pandemic resulting
from the pandemic induced travel bans and restrictions which were instituted across the whole world to curb the spread of COVID-19. Albeit the critical importance of these measures, they
led to substantial losses in investment, business, revenue, employment, livelihoods of
communities and local economic development worldwide and Zimbabwe was no exception.

The project’s main thrust is to support and accelerate recovery while
building resilience across various tourism segments, levels of development and
demographics. Other areas of strategic imperative of the assessment are the impact of COVID-19 on tourism losses in areas of investment, arrivals, revenues, employment, image, growth and more.

The assessment is being carried out across the country focusing on building back big, small, medium enterprises and community-based tourism projects.

In order to obtain relevant and appropriate data that will inform decision making, the ZTA through BDO Advisory Services and Africa Tourism Partners will be conducting an industry wide online survey with effect from May 2022.

There are four regional workshops scheduled between 6 and 17 June 2022 in Chinhoyi, Masvingo, p
Bulawayo and Victoria Falls.

Expected outputs at the end of the assessment include the following:
• The level of COVID-19 impacts to tourism investment, revenue, employment, etc
• Community Based Tourism Enterprises Map
• Tourism Investment Mapping
• New Tourism Development Zones
• Tourism Investment Strategy
• Domestic Tourism Strategy
• MICE Strategy
• Destination Marketing Strategy

ZTA CHAIRMAN MAWERERA UNVEILS NEW CE

Zimbabwe’s tourism expert --- Winnie Muchanyuka --- has been appointed as the substantive Zimbabwe Tourism Authority’s new Chief Executive.

Muchanyuka replaces Dr Karikoga Kaseke who was retired last year due to ill-health, and she takes over from Mr Givemore Chidzidzi who has been steering the ship in an acting capacity at ZTA.

Announcing the appointment, ZTA board chairman Mr Raynold Mawerera commended Mr Chidzidzi for holding forte in the past months. He appreciated Mr Chidzidzi under whose leadership and guidance helped drive ZTA on a positive trajectory inspite of the advent of the COVID-19 pandemic that hit the tourism sector hard.

He mentioned the successful launch of the ZimBho domestic tourism campaign and the Meet In Zim initiative, a Meetings, Incentives, Conferences, and Exhibitions (MICE) campaign as some of Mr Chidzidzi’s career highlights.

Environment, Climate, Tourism, and Hospitality Industry Minister Nqobizitha Ndhlovu hailed the appointment of Ms Winnie as she is affectionately known in the tourism sector, as a step in the right direction. “The appointment of Winnie Muchanyuka to the ZTA as CE is apt in that she is not a stranger to the tourism industry. The industry awaited such an appointment with comfort. There are high hopes for tourism amid clear signs of recovery in the sector. Statistically, the first quarter of 2022 has been quite promising and there is a need to maintain that trajectory."

“Tourism inflows increased by 10 percent to register US$214 million this quarter. As we are opening up the sector, the tourism industry should grow bigger and bigger. ZTA is the critical bridge between the private sector and policymaking."

“Despite the fact that tourism struggled under COVID-19, there is hope for it to grow bigger. The US$5 billion tourism sector target is achievable if we work together collectively. We seek to review the targets only upwards. Tourism is the face of the country, the key voice of our country. The ZTA and the tourism sector should forge close ties with the media. Next week on Wednesday I will announce the new members of the ZTA Board. To the ZTA CE and entire management, I urge your dedication towards growing the industry and to embrace success as we march towards the 2025 target of a US$5 billion tourism economy,” Hon Ndhlovu said.

Muchanyuka accepted the appointment with joy adding that she was happy to ride on the success of her predecessors. “The ZTA Team has done exceptionally well and continues to do tremendous work towards growing the tourism industry. I pledge my support to the mandate given to me by the Principal, Honourable Mangaliso Ndhlovu, the tourism minister and the US$5 billion tourism target he alluded to is not changing," she said.

“In fact, we can surpass it. Zimbabwe needs to achieve a middle-income economy by 2030 and tourism plays a key role in achieving that goal. I am also looking forward to a close partnership with the media in telling the good story of this country. I am excited to be starting on this journey,” Muchanyuka said.

Hon Barbra Rwodzi, the Deputy Minister of Environment, Climate, Tourism, and Hospitality Industry congratulated the new ZTA CE and alluded to the full stakeholder representation at the announcement of her appointment as a clear sign of endorsement of her new role.

She encouraged stakeholders to open doors for ZTA through collaboration, and partnerships while working closely with the media as well. This, she said, should be done in the spirit of the ‘Zimbabwe is open for business’ mantra through tourism.

Muchanyuka brings a wealth of experience to the ZTA. She is the immediate past President of the Tourism Business Council of Zimbabwe. She has vast experience in the aviation industry as she served as Country Director for South African Airways with stints at Air Zimbabwe and Swiss Air.

Many African countries depend on tourism as major source of revenue and hence when earlier this month Indaba, a leading African travel show returned after a gap of 2-years due to the pandemic, practically every National Tourism Organisation from Africa was present. India Outbound used the occasion to meet a variety of exhibitors and ask them what Indaba meant and how they saw revival of tourism.
