SLTA Highlights Eco-Tourism For Sustainable Growth On Global Tourism Resilience Day

In observance of Global Tourism Resilience Day, the Saint Lucia Tourism Authority (SLTA) is emphasizing the vital role of eco-tourism to the island’s sustainable development. For many developing nations—including small island states, African nations, and middle-income economies—tourism is a key driver of income, foreign exchange earnings, tax revenue, and employment. With its deep connection to nature, sustainable tourism has the power to promote environmental responsibility and conservation while supporting economic growth.
