The tourism sector can play a significant role in the response to HIV and AIDS given its specific characteristics. Tourism is one of the world’s top job-creating and fastest growing industries. It is an extremely labour intensive sector with a diverse workforce and high employee turnover. Tourism offers unique employment opportunities for young, low-skilled and migrant workers, as well as the potential for economic growth for developing countries.
In particular, due to the large amount of workers, companies and communities that can be reached through tourism worldwide, the sector can make a major contribution to countering the global HIV and AIDS crisis.
