The Agrhymet Regional Center (ARC) organized, in collaboration with PAGE Burkina Faso and UNITAR, a sub-regional webinar on April 12 under the theme: “Post-COVID19 Economic Recovery and Ecological Transition in West Africa. The case of the Tourism sector”.
The pandemic has made it possible “to redefine the order of priorities to lay the foundations for a strong, competitive, inclusive economy in a context of environmental preservation; to review the business model in order to make tourism – already affected by security problems – an anchor point for endogenous and sustainable socio-economic growth” said the Burkinabe expert Dr. Larba Issa Kobyagada. The regional exchange activity gathered representatives of governments, academics, development experts and PAGE agency UNITAR teams of 3 west African countries: Burkina Faso, Senegal and Morocco.
