¿What we do?

Within the framework of the Cooperation Agreement on Tourism and the Specific Cooperation Program on Tourism, the objective of the group is to work on joint projects, activities and actions that allow the strengthening of the sector in the member countries. These actions will be oriented towards the exchange of experiences, mutual support in multilateral scenarios, facilitation of mobility, and the realization of promotional events, or specialized business conferences; all this with the aim of generating a growing and constant movement of intra or extra regional people, motivated by the strategies undertaken from the public sector in the member countries.
