In collaboration with our host nations, the World Tourism Forum Institute is reshaping economies through tourism development. We do this by working with countries that have untold tourism stories to share, as well as countries with already established tourism industries that are seeking to drive the narrative about their current and future success. Our aim is to reduce the negative impact of tourism, by increasing the more positive impact of sustainable development goals in tourism globally. As the leading international tourism development and investment brand, the World Tourism Forum Institute, is a London, UK-based organisation, committed to promoting countries in the fields of tourism development, economic growth, FDI through tourism investments, and human resource development within the industry. The World Tourism Forum Institute creates a legacy for the host country, by way of carefully selected and tailor-made initiatives aiming to promote the country’s image internationally, create greater visibility and determine the industry’s objectives through soft power. These experiences – from Global Tourism Forum conferences, WTFI’s masterclasses, and international media promotions – are designed to strengthen the nation’s brand abroad, as well as highlight the importance of the tourism sector in the economic landscape.
Based In Jakarta – Indonesia, we are a non-profit organization that focuses on promoting Indonesia Tourism and support the industry to become excellent. We are associated with world tourism forum institute as our global partner.
Mission of ITF:
The Ministry of Tourism and Creative Economy (Indonesian: Kementerian Pariwisata dan Ekonomi Kreatif, formerly Kementerian Pariwisata) is the ministry in Indonesia concerned with administration of tourism.
In the 1990s, tourism was a directorate general within the Department of Tourism, Posts and Telecommunications (Indonesian: Departemen Pariwisata, Pos dan Telekomunikasi) which concerned with administration of postal and telecommunication as well., not a standalone department/ministry yet.
In 2014, the ministry name changes to become the Ministry of Tourism after President Joko Widodo announce the cabinet line up. Joko Widodo plan to spin off the Directorate General of Creative Economy into a new separate organisation which will be named Creative Economy Agency (Indonesian: Badan Ekonomi Kreatif).
Aligning your organisation’s brand with the GTF is a smart and effective way to engage global tourism industry.
