Ecotourism Australia’s 28th annual Global Eco Asia-Pacific Tourism Conference will be held in Margaret River, Western Australia from 1 - 3 December 2020, says a media release from the organization.
“Ecotourism has come a long way in that time and now represents some 25% of the industry Australia-wide. The conference is usually held in late November/early December, so we are hopeful that by then travel is again a normal part of our lives. The event will be an important time to re-calibrate, focus on rebuilding affected markets and creating strong returns to businesses, destinations and communities through tourism,” said Ecotourism Australia Chair, Dr Claire Ellis.
The conference is being supported at a state level by the Tourism Western Australia and The Department of Biodiversity and Attractions, together with Margaret River Busselton Tourism Association, Augusta Margaret River Shire and the South West Development -Commission.
Global Eco is Ecotourism Australia’s premier annual event and is the most respected ecotourism conference in the world. It attracts leading tourism industry operators, ecotourism professionals, tourism bodies and researchers.
