During a virtual presentation held during the World Travel & Tourism Council (WTTC) Global Summit, Peru’s Foreign Trade and Tourism Minister stated that inclusion and sustainability will be the top priorities for the tourism sector in the country that hosts Machu Picchu, one of the New 7 Wonders of the World. 

 

The Foreign Trade and Tourism Minister, Claudia Cornejo, declared during her speech that “it is not only about involving locals in some of the activities, but all citizens must immerse themselves in the industry so that they can benefit from what it has to offer. This is the strategy that Peru has been developing, but it must be further strengthened: it requires the commitment and participation of all sectors, both public and private”. 

 

Cornejo also referred to the country’s National Strategy to Reactivate the Tourism Sector, an strategy that aims to develop several sustainable destinations along the country while positioning Peru as a safe place with first class tourism products with an estimated 3 year implementation period.
