Il GIST sarà presente alla Fiera del Turismo che si svolgerà a Tirana dal 2 al 4 giugno 2022.
Si tratta della prima fiera di dimensioni importanti organizzata da Expocity Albania, che vuole promuovere il turismo dei Paesi balcanici, che stanno investendo molto nel settore turistico. Il programma della Fiera è molto intenso e coinvolge le massime autorità istituzionali, oltre ad aziende che operano nel settore.
Il GIST, grazie all’interessamento della collega socia Franca Iannici, sarà presente con uno stand gratuito, dove avremo grande visibilità e ci faremo conoscere, portando il nostro Annuario 2022, i collage fotografici e materiale promozionale della nostra associazione. L‘obiettivo finale è di realizzare una partnership tra il GIST e l’Albania, un Paese che ha grandi potenzialità di sviluppo.
Ecco il programma:
