  • Practical Information – Dakar
    Practical information – Dakar Dakar Dakar, capital of Senegal and one of the chief seaports on the western African coast. It is located midway between the mouths of the Gambia and Sénégal rivers on the south-eastern side of the Cape Verde Peninsula, close to Africa’s most westerly point. Dakar’s harbour is one of the best in Western Africa, being protected by the limestone cliffs of the cape and by a system of breakwaters. The city’s name comes from dakhar, a Wolof name for the tamarind tree, as well as the name of a coastal Lebu village that was located south of what is now the first pier. King Fahd Conference Centre The meetings will be held at the King Fahd Conference Centre which also houses the King Fahd Hotel. Those of you staying at the King Fahd Hotel can move from the lobby to the Conference Centre without leaving the building. The Yaas Hotel is the closest recommended hotel to the venue and is only 5 minutes away. Attached is a map of the King Fahd Conference Centre for reference. The Airport The main airport in Dakar is the Blaise Diagne International (DSS). Blaise Diagne International Airport is located on the east of the downtown of Dakar near the town of Diass. It is linked to the city via taxis, busses and shuttles. Travel to and from the Airport The Government of Senegal has kindly offered shuttle busses between the airport and the hotels recommended to the Secretariat. Please send Leah Krogsund ([email protected]) your arrival and departure dates and times should you require the use of these services.

  • Accessibility of Arts and Cultural Activities in Wales’
    CC(3) AC 86 Communities and Culture Committee: Inquiry into the ‘Accessibility of Arts and Cultural Activities in Wales’ ‘Post-Script’ Evidence from Capital Region Tourism/ Uwch Ranbarth Twristiaeth Background Capital Region Tourism (CRT) is one of four regional tourism partnerships (RTPs) in Wales with, since 2002, resources and responsibilities devolved from Visit Wales for the development and implementation of a tourism strategy for South East Wales. Culture and Heritage is one of the six key visitor experiences identified in the current strategy (2007-13) where the region is deemed to have market advantage. As a partnership body, CRT’s board of management includes all local authorities in the region together with 11 industry representatives elected by their peers. CRT is an active member of the Wales Cultural Tourism Partnership and forms part of Wales’ representation in the European Cultural Tourism Network. The remaining three RTPs have also identified areas of cultural life as key to tourism development and marketing e.g. Food in Mid Wales and Gardens in South West Wales. Dewi Davies of Tourism Partnership North Wales, which leads the ‘Giants of North Wales’ campaign, has been asked by Visit Wales to take the lead ‘champion’ role for Cultural Tourism in Wales – a demonstration of tourism’s commitment to delivering on the One Wales agenda for regionally based tourism linked to cultural activities. This evidence, submitted by CRT on behalf of the 4 RTPs, was also endorsed by the Wales Cultural Tourism Partnership at its meeting on 4th November 2010. Tourism’s relationship with Culture, Heritage, Arts and Creative Industries Tourism is firmly in the economic sphere as a major wealth creator for Wales but in the sustainable model of tourism to which all stakeholders in Wales increasingly subscribe we would seek to summarise the relational issues in the attached diagram, which recognizes that the various policy agendas, inputs, outcomes and objectives are not identical but do overlap.

  • UK Office July 2020 TDC Report Prepared By: Venessa Alexander UK Director
    UK Office July 2020 TDC Report Prepared by: Venessa Alexander UK Director Tour Operators Trailfinders – We spoke with Rachel Webb, Destination Manager for Florida at Trailfinders and were advised that the Trailfinders Product team and other non-customer facing departments continue to work from home. But I'm pleased to say that, in a step towards normality, their travel centres in England, Wales and Ireland have re-opened their doors to their clients again, with all the necessary precautions in place, and their 3 travel centres in Scotland were set to re-open again at the beginning of July. They have now taken the decision to cancel all US departures up to 1 Aug 20 and Rachel suspects more will be cancelled beyond this. The company strategy very much remains to encourage their clients to re-book rather than cancel and as they get more product on sale, they are seeing more success. They continue to be able to book flights out of range. However, there are still gaps in their programme if their contact has been furloughed so they are having trouble securing a contract. Their receptive partners are also facing similar difficulties securing rates and then having the resources available to load. While they’ve seen a lot of interest in Florida as a whole, much of the business is being driven to Orlando where much product is on sale to the end of 2021 or, in some cases, into 2022. Currently, there's not the same amount of product on sale as usual in St Pete/Clearwater so the numbers booking are much smaller.

Identification of current research and potential partner institutions was also part of the regional scans. 3 Country level investigations carried in the pilot countries selected in each one of the six sub- regions. Country case studies were based on participatory stakeholders’ analysis with the aim of validating the regional scans reviews. An important component of the country case studies was to make an assessment of the relevance of the research themes and if necessary to propose new themes.

  • 1 Maliq Brewster Southwind High School Memphis, TN Senegal
    Maliq Brewster Southwind High School Memphis, TN Senegal, Factor 15 Senegal: Overcoming Economic and Legal Injustices through the Empowerment of Women, Cultural Awareness, and Financial Inclusion “In the end we will conserve only what we love; we will love only what we understand; we will understand only what we are taught.” Senegalese Proverb Located in Western Africa on the Atlantic Ocean and bordered by Guinea, Mali, and Mauritania, Senegal is a geographic paradox of arid desert land to the north, open areas of grassland in the center, and lush tropical forests in the South. According to the CIA World Factbook, Senegal is listed 193 out of 229 countries with a GDP per Capita of only $2,100 per year; yet, interestingly enough, it is the most sought after vacation destination in Western Africa. From the culturally rich and vibrant capital city of Dakar to the white sandy beaches that run along its coastline and a government that retains stability more than many other African countries, tourism has become the second largest contributor to the Senegalese economy ("Travel and Tourism in Senegal"). It is simple enough for tourists to see the majesty of this country yet conveniently avoid the everyday struggles of citizens that seek to subsist in a country with a 46.7% poverty rate and a 48% unemployment rate ("World Bank Development Indicators"). Senegal has had a very tumultuous history, beginning with the rivalry between France and Britain for colonization of a resource rich country (Gascoigne). In 1982, a civil war erupted which became known as the “Conflict of Casamance.” Casamance is a highly fertile region in southern Senegal, separated by the Gambia River.

  • Impacts of Coastal Tourism Development and Sustainability: a Geographical Case Study of Sali in the Senegalese Petite Cote
    Geographical Review of Japan Vol. 74 (Ser. B), No. 1, 62-77, 2001 Impacts of Coastal Tourism Development and Sustainability: A Geographical Case Study of Sali in the Senegalese Petite Cote Abdou Khadre DIAGNE Ph. D. candidate, Graduate School of Science and Technology, Chiba University, Chiba 263-8522, Japan Abstract: Since the 1970s, tourism development in the Senegalese Petite Cote has rapidly expanded, with diverse impacts in a number of spheres. The human and physical geography of the Petite Cote and its ecosystems are being powerfully shaped by the new entrepreneurial activity. What changes, positive and negative, has tourism brought along the coastline? How can locals be better integrated into the tourism sector? How can sustainable tourism develop ment be effectively promoted here? To assess the impacts of coastal tourism, questionnaire surveys were conducted in 1999 and 2001 in three focal areas for tourism in Sali resort. The surveys indicate that tourism has significantly modified traditional social structure and spawned an array of new social ills, such as prostitution and theft. The tourism boom has transformed many villages into satellites for cheap menial labor. The present investigation can be usefully viewed as a concrete case study of unsustainable tourism development. Despite the fast pace of tourism expansion, it is still oriented largely to maximizing returns, with the evident exclusion of most of the local population. Numerous tourism-related pollutants now plague the environment of traditional villages. It is argued that locals should be better integrated into the tourism process and pollution must be dealt with by rigorous new measures with an aim to promoting more sustainable development in harmony with the local economy and ecology.

  • UK Office April 2020 TDC Report Prepared By
    UK Office April 2020 TDC Report Prepared by: Venessa Alexander UK Director Tour Operators 360 Private Travel - We spoke to Zia Bapuji, Supplier Partnerships Director at 360 Private Travel. The business operates as an invite-only, high-end luxury travel concierge service. Zia advised that eight members of the head office team have been furloughed for the foreseeable future; the business’s luxury travel consultants are all self-employed individuals that are continuing to work to support their customers, however, it is an extremely difficult period; bookings with values exceeding £100k are being lost. One significant difference for this operator is the customer is more willing (perhaps able?) to leave any monies paid to 360 with the operator and defer it to another trip later in 2020 or 2021. Zia noted that many suppliers (hotels, airlines) are no longer offering refunds and will only provide credit notes, which means the business/its consultants will be at a loss in situations where the customer wishes to cancel for a full refund. Ocean Holidays - We spoke to Lisa Airey, Commercial Manager. Lisa advised the business is currently working week-to-week dealing with upcoming bookings making amendments or cancellations. The majority are amending trips to the end of 2020 or 2021 but there are some cancellations, and this is of concern to the business because of the hit to cash flow. They have contacted all customers due to travel up to the middle of June and expect to have spoken to those travelling up to 30 June within the next couple of days.
