Small Island Destinations are in critical need of support as #tourism has been disrupted, placing millions of jobs at risk. The socioeconomic impact must be countered with coordinated actions to reinforce tourism as a key partner for recovery. 🔗https://lnkd.in/e7zPbWk
The situation that the hospitality industry in the #Maldives is facing, is a paradigmatic example about this topic.
Covid-19 has given us the chance to think. Is our economy strong enough to combat this difficult situation? Tourism is closely related to each destination's economy.
