Trang 83 Fostering the poverty reduction impact of tourism
Reducing poverty by developing value-chain linkages between the tourism
industry and local producers of goods and services in LDCs
A Rationale for working on business linkages for poverty reduction
-90% of DTIS linked to tourism state the creation of business linkages as key
challenge.
-Increasing interest by hotel chains, restaurants and tour operators to invest more in
local sourcing.
-Limited capacities and skills of entrepreneurs to meet quality requirements of hotels,
restaurants and tour operators.
B Objective of joint support
- Maximise the tourism industry’s positive impact on local producers and service
providers & entrepreneurs (e.g agro-food, creative industries, services).
- LDCs able to take advantage of the complementary institutional and technical
strengths of the different SCTD/UN Agencies (ITC, UNWTO, UNCTAD, UNDP and ILO)
