💥 What’s the Big Deal:

Papua New Guinea's Tourism Promotion Authority (TPA) is embracing a digital revolution to empower local tourism operators and bring global visibility to PNG’s unique cultural and natural assets. By integrating digital tools 🖥️ into the country’s tourism strategy, the TPA is building a future where accessibility, storytelling, and sustainability go hand in hand.

Digital transformation opens up unprecedented opportunities for small and medium-sized tourism enterprises, helping them connect with travelers directly, improve service offerings 🏝️, and compete in global markets 📲. It also enhances the visitor experience through streamlined access to information, booking, and cultural insight.

For PI-SIDS, this model showcases how leveraging technology can reduce reliance on external intermediaries while amplifying indigenous narratives 🪢 and ensuring economic returns stay within the community 💼. It's not just about tourism—it's about identity, sovereignty, and resilience in an increasingly digital world.
