Project Description
IFC’s PNG Tourism Project targets development of tourism SMEs and creation of a stronger tourism market in PNG. The aim of the project is to grow revenues of tourism SMEs and to improve conditions necessary for PNG to attract investment into its tourism sector over time. IFC activities will support a number of tourism SMEs to enhance their business operations and to develop new products and services that are increasingly inclusive, while meeting market needs. IFC will work with both public and private sector entities to better understand the current tourism market and to identify specific opportunities to grow arrivals, both air and cruise, to the country. The work is supported by Australia’s Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT) and New Zealand’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade (MFAT).
