An 11.1 million USD project to promote sustainable tourism development will be carried out in five poorest provinces of Vietnam.
The targeted provinces, including Cao Bang and Bac Kan in the north, Thua-Thien Hue, Quang Binh and Quang Tri in the central region, have potentials for tourism development.
The five-year project is part of the “Greater Mekong Sub-region Sustainable Tourism Development Project” funded by the Asian Development Bank.
The project will improve tourism-related infrastructures, support pro-poor community-based tourism projects, facilitate private sector participation in tourism marketing and promotion.
It also aims to reduce the rates of poor households, contribute to economic growth, increase employment and promote the conservation of natural and cultural heritage in the beneficiary areas.
