Strengthening Tourism Value Chains in Africa

Africa's participation in global value chains remains minimal, affecting the continent's tourism revenue. Dr. Manyara emphasised the need to improve domestic capacities and reduce revenue leakages.

Considerations:
• Only 16% of resorts in Zanzibar are locally owned.
• 70% of agricultural inputs in Botswana are imported.
Enhancing local ownership and production will maximize opportunities within the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA).

Aviation and Tourism in Africa

A vital point from Dr. Manyara's address: While 60% of tourists reach their destinations via air travel, Africa's share in the global aviation market is just 2%. This disparity highlights the need for substantial growth in Africa's aviation sector.

Facts:
• Africa ordered only 700 aircraft in 2016 compared to 23,000 globally.
• By 2036, global new aircraft orders are projected to be 43,000, with Africa accounting for just 16,000.
Strengthening aviation infrastructure is key to boosting tourism and economic growth.

Tourism Investment Trends in Africa

Africa has seen a rise in tourism capital investment, with North and South Africa leading the charge. However, as West African countries turn their focus to tourism, it's crucial for stakeholders to support this shift.

Challenges:

Africa's share of global tourism receipts is declining.

Average spending per tourist in Africa is significantly lower than the global average.

Tourism needs to grow to boost the continent's GDP and trade relationships.

Let's invest more in Africa's tourism sector to harness its full potential!
