17-12-23
The World Tourism Organization (UNWTO) today inaugurated a Latin American headquarters in Rio de Janeiro (Brazil), adding three regional offices outside the central office in Madrid.
At the controversial 25th General Assembly of the UNWTO held last October in Uzbekistan, the installation of a regional representation of the UNWTO was approved. In addition to the Organization's headquarters in Madrid (Spain), the entity has a regional office located in Saudi Arabia.
The new office aims to be a reference point for actions and policies that can boost tourism throughout the region, promoting the economic and social development of the countries it serves.
