EU helps Vietnam build annual tourism report

The Vietnam National Administration of Tourism has been preparing an annual report on the country’s tourism in 2013 with the assistance from the EU-funded Environmentally and Socially Responsible Tourism Capacity Development (ESRT) Project.

The report, the first of its kind built following international practice, will provide valuable information about both domestic and international tourism activities for the Government, potential investors, State management offices and travel agencies across the country. 

The report will serve as a basis for relevant sides to define tourist trends in the future and contribute positively to the sector’s development. 

It was designed to have seven chapters, coming up with an overview on the sector’s achievements gained in 2013, as well as marketing and promotion activities. Difficulties and challenges facing the sector in the future are also mentioned in the report. 

A draft report is scheduled to be introduced at a workshop in Hanoi on October 2. 

The 11-million-EUR ESRT project aims at mainstreaming responsible principles into Vietnam’s tourism sector in order to enhance the competitiveness of the industry.
