For this purpose, UNWTO developed a Programme that outlines the objectives, suggested activities and a fundraising strategy.
This special edition of the UNWTO newsletter dedicated to the Year, highlights some of the activities and events that took place. For more information and news, please visit the IY2017 official website.
In the last six months, we have welcomed ten Special Ambassadors who are joining us in promoting tourism for development. We have celebrated eight out of the thirteen official IY2017 events included in the IY Official Calendar of Events.
All this was made possible due to the contribution and support of more than 60 sponsors and partners. Additionally we have partnered with other UN agencies and organizations to disseminate the messages of the Year.
The logo of the International Year is reproduced on the reverse, representing the inhabitants of planet Earth as seeds moving around the world in a sustainable, clean and responsible way.
