Dr. Hani Mulki, Prime Minister of Jordan Investing in Tourism for an Inclusive Future: Challenges and Opportunities Regional Conference Petra, Jordan, 26–27 October 2016 Under the Patronage of H.E. Dr. Hani Mulki, Prime Minister of Jordan Regional Conference INVESTING IN TOURISM FOR AN INCLUSIVE FUTURE: Challenges and Opportunities 26–27 October 2016 Petra, Jordan Jointly organized by the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD), the World Tourism Organization (UNWTO) and the Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities of Jordan With the support of Foreword On behalf of the World Tourism Organization (UNWTO), the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) and the Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities of the Kingdom of Jordan, it is our great pleasure to welcome all participants to the Regional Conference on Investing in Tourism for an Inclusive Future: Challenges and Opportunities. We are gathering in the beautiful city of Petra to engage in a multi-stakeholder dialogue that will allow us to exchange ideas and recommendations for sustainable tourism development in the Southern and Eastern Mediterranean region – a region that, despite its challenges and difficulties, has tremendous opportunities to take advantage of. We are convinced that tourism has the capacity to fill some of those gaps that hamper the region’s efforts to advance in such a way as to benefit everyone, including future generations. Indeed, well-managed tourism in the region can generate new and better jobs, stimulate the local and regional economy and safeguard the sensitive ecosystems and its invaluable services. Yet, for tourism to be inclusive and sustainable, sound investments in the sector are indispensable.

  • Shubbak-Festival-2013-Guide.Pdf
    WELCOME TO THE 2013 EDITION OF SHUBBAK Shubbak is a unique opportunity to celebrate the rich and very diverse cultures of the Arab World within one framework, allowing us to make new connections and better understand the societies which produce them. It also celebrates the growing influence of London’s Arab population on our city today. Shubbak is also a chance to look at how we in London and the UK were and continue to be connected to that part of the world, and how those connections can become more interesting, enriching and peaceful. These are turbulent and challenging times for the region but they are also filled with expectation and hope. No one can guide us better through them than the region’s writers, artists and creators. Finally, I hope you will join us to discover for yourself why Arab culture is so awesome and remarkable, and why London is today one of the best places in the world to celebrate it. Omar Al-Qattan Chair, Shubbak 2013 MAYor of London’s stATEMENT London is undeniably a global city and one of the world’s great centres, not just for international trade, but also for cultural exchange. Our city offers a gateway to Britain as well as to the rest of Europe, with arts and culture having a key role to play in building understanding with the Arab world. I was thrilled with the success of Shubbak when we launched it in 2011 and am equally delighted to see this exciting arts festival return this year. It is a chance to see the world through new eyes and to strengthen relations between artists in London and the Middle East.
