Tourism Security Training in Haiti

The CICTE Secretariat conducted a workshop on Tourism Security training in Port-au-Prince, Haiti, August 10-14, 2009. This training course was the result of a partnership between CICTE, the Department of Trade and Tourism (OAS/DTT), the Tourism Association of Haiti (ATH) and the Quisqueya University, in collaboration with the Ministry of Tourism and Government of Haiti. The five-day course discussed security challenges faced by hotels and other recreational sites for tourism. The objective of the course consisted in the development of public-private partnership in protecting tourism and recreational facilities from any threat to security.  It was specifically aimed at the security staff of the public and private sectors in Haiti who have direct responsibility for these tourist destinations. Over twenty-five (25) Haitians representatives from these two sectors attended this training.
