Tourism: A Force for Good
Driving Regional Economic Growth and Social Impact in a Sustainable Way
The NITA annual conference was held on World Tourism Day, 27th September 2023.
Using the global themes for World Tourism Day 2023 – People, Planet and Prosperity the conference focussed on the strides that have been made by the industry across these 3 areas.
The success of the conference is down to our speakers and we would like to say a huge thank you to our keynotes Jayne Brady and Hilary McGrady and the panellists who brought real world examples and experience to the topics of sustainability and skills.
We would also like to say a huge thank you to our sponsor Titanic Belfast and their amazing events team.
