A formal understanding between the Africa Travel Association (ATA) and Pacific Asia Travel Association (PATA) has been signed. ATA President, the Hon. Kabinga J Pande MP, Zambia`s Minister of Tourism, Environment and Natural Resources, signed the agreement during ATA`s 31st World Congress in Accra, Ghana, last week.
Minister Pande attended the 55th PATA Annual Conference last month. The memorandum spells out areas of information and research exchange and other areas of cooperation between the two associations and their members.
The aim of the PATA-ATA link is to gain a greater understanding of, and positively influence, increased tourism flows between both regions. Both ATA and PATA expressed their gratitude for the leadership role, which the International Institute for Peace Through Tourism played to bring about the PATA-ATA partnership. The ATA Conference also appointed the Hon. J. Otanka Obetsebi-Lamptey, Ghana`s Minister of Tourism, as ATA`s new President.
