Celebrated annually across the world on September 27, this year World Tourism Day is more relevant as it addresses the importance of tourism sector in providing jobs and opportunities, mostly for women and youth, in rural as well as big cities amid the Covid-19. The day also highlights the unique role of tourism sector in preserving cultural and natural heritage all around the world apart from being a leading employer and economic pillar.

Countries across the world are depending on the tourism sector like never before to drive recovery, after bearing a heavy blow on their economy courtesy the Covid-19 pandemic. The theme for World Tourism Day 2020 is “Tourism and Rural Development” as domestic tourism is expected to return before international tourism, according to United Nations World Tourism Organisation’s foresight.
