For the first time, Tourism Update invited nominations for the most influential women in tourism.
From 50 nominations, we had the unenviable task of highlighting just five women whose work has had a significant impact on inbound tourism in Africa.
This week’s Tourism Update Women in Tourism feature profiles five industry leaders whose contributions have helped shape the sector. From building a luxury boutique hotel in Kigali to marketing the continent’s more remote destinations, drawing travellers back after the pandemic, creating platforms that connect tourism businesses and promoting niche tourism sectors, each has made a unique impact.
