March 8 is and we are pleased to be honouring the importance of women in the travel industry πŸ‘‘βœ¨

Through the month of March, we are kicking off the in Travel Industry Series. To inspire the next generation to recognise their own potential and achieve better gender equality, we invited accomplished women leaders from our PATA global community across the Asia Pacific and beyond to share their thoughts and advice. Stay tuned to our channels for insightful, supportive advice from our inspiring line-up of industry women leaders.

Women represent 54% of people employed in tourism (60% in Asia), 27% of tourism ministers and 20% of government ministers. Less than 5% of C-level roles are held by women. In addition, women in tourism earn 14.7% less and a high proportion remain in low-skill or entry level positions. It's time to support change.

Join our webinar on Tuesday, March 8 at 2 - 3 PM SGT (11:30 AM IST | 5:30 PM AEDT | 7:00 PM NZDT | (Mar 7) 10:00 PM PST) for a conversation on Developing Women Leaders in Travel. You'll hear great advice from women leaders including Jane Sun of Trip.com Group, Suzanne Neufang of Global Business Travel Association - GBTA, and others. ⭐️ Register now: https://bit.ly/34cW3TS

PATA's CEO Liz Ortiguera and Andrew Chan of ACI HR Solutions (Travel and Hospitality Recruitment) will discuss how the next generation of women leaders can be more empowered.
