TOURISM BUSINESS OWNERS & MANAGERS: Please complete this survey and share widely with other businesses

The current border closure is temporary, so it is vital that we make sure that the damage from this crisis is temporary too. One of the best ways we can help is by having a solid evidence base to present to our decision makers.

To enable us to understand how the impacts on our industry are evolving, the Vanuatu Tourism Office and the Department of Tourism have today jointly launched the follow up to the COVID-19 tourism businesses impact survey that we ran back in April.

The survey is available in English, Bislama and French, and as before, it allows owners and managers of Vanuatu tourism businesses of all sizes to provide information on how the COVID-19 border closure is affecting them.

The survey is open until Friday, 11 September at 5pm.

We urge all owners and managers of Vanuatu tourism businesses to assist us by completing this survey – Click HERE to fill it out.

PLEASE NOTE VCCI WILL BE SENDING OUT A SURVEY ON WEDNESDAY FOR ALL OUR BUSINESS MEMBERS NOT IN THE TOURISM SECTOR. WE ENCOURAGE AS MANY PEOPLE AS POSSIBLE TO FILL THIS IN ALSO.

 

Thank you,

The VCCI team
