To do this, we need input, professional advice, learnings, and best practices – adapted to our pressing needs in a small developing island nation. We are delighted to host delegates from around the world to also experience the very best sustainable tourism experiences we have to offer,» said Tourism Fiji CEO Brent Hill.
