presented two projects focused on boosting the development and transformation of the tourism sector across the Asia-Pacific region.
The first project is titled "Study and workshop to generate digital tools for the transition towards formal economy of tourism companies in the Asia-Pacific region."
It aims to identify and evaluate the main digital tools available that can support the formalization of tourism sector businesses in APEC economies.
On the other hand, the second project, titled "Impact of creative economies on the future of tourism in the APEC region," is characterized by examining the importance of creative economies to boost economic growth and job creation in the tourism sector —one of the goals also set by Mincetur to strengthen the sector's reactivation.
Their development would require investments of close to US$125,000 and US$120,000, respectively, which would be financed by APEC.
Thus, the Peruvian government agency seeks to promote innovation, sustainability, and responsible growth in the tourism sector for the benefit of the entire Asia-Pacific region.
