Tourism minister G Kishan Reddy virtually addressed the Tourism Ministers’ meeting of BRICS member countries on Monday.
“Green Tourism can accelerate the recovery and development of tourism on sustainable lines. India also attaches great importance to implementing the UN 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and to promoting sustainable development in the tourism sector to address the challenges in environmental protection and climate change,” he said.
According to him, the ministry’s approach is to focus on post-COVID growth and development of the tourism sector and priority areas like cultural tourism, adventure tourism, MICE, medical, wellness and rural tourism, for which the following major initiatives have been identified (i) green growth and sustainable development (ii) digital tourism (iii) destination management (iv) tourism and hospitality skill development & MSME development. This will also be reflected in India’s SCO presidency and G20 presidency in 2022-23.
