UDC tackles exclusion in tourism

“The Okavango is one of the most pristine natural habitats and attractions in the world, and yet we have not been able to exploit this asset to the full extent, in a manner that contributes significantly to inclusive social and economic advancement of communities around the Okavango in Botswana while at the same time sustaining ecological conservation,” UDC secretary general Ndaba Gaolathe told reporters yesterday.

“There is need to identify challenges and opportunities for various stakeholders to focus on. We should forge consensus on overall vision and aspirations.”
