UNWTO adopts UN Tourism as its new name signifying three main messages: the UN as a global altruistic organization, the notion of connecting humans around the world, and the concept of proactivity and movement. The rebrand also includes a revamp of the entire visual system.

WTM’s global travel report indicates that global tourism continues to rebound strongly despite risks and challenges facing the industry. By the end of 2023, tourism economics predicts that global outbound trips will exceed 1.25 billion, which is over 85% of the peak level achieved in 2019.    

Peter Semone, Chairman, PATA, has said that PTM 2023 has attracted over 1000 delegates from 46 global destinations, which includes 159 sellers from 92 organisations and 15 destinations, along with 196 buyers from 191 organisations and 38 source markets.

Tourism Minister P A Mohamed Riyas unveiled the logo for the ‘Fam 2 Malabar 500’ initiative, that will bring around 500 tour operators from India and abroad to the districts of Thrissur, Palakkad, Malappuram, Kozhikode, Kannur, Wayanad, and Kasaragod this year to familiarise themselves with the region’s potential as a vibrant tourism hub.
