As the tourism sector seeks to recuperate from the devastating effects of Covid-19, the imbizo will bring all tourism role players under one roof to collectively deliberate on steering the sector towards recovery and growth in 2021.
The imbizo will also reflect on the impact of Covid-19 on the sector through data from the 2020 Socio-Economic Impact Assessment Annual Report.
