In May 2009, Belize was slated to host the Third International Conference on Responsible Tourism in Destinations. However, due to the unfortunate presentation of the H1N1 Influenza Virus Pandemic, a postponement was inevitable.
Nonetheless, after consultations with partners, ICRT-Belize is tirelessly making re-adjustments to hold the conference on October 19-22, 2009.

It is with this that ICRT- Belize would like to once again take this opportunity to extend an invitation to you and your organization to attend the Third World Conference on Responsible Tourism to be held in our capital, Belmopan City. We would also like to extend our appreciation to all those individuals and rganizations that have expressed their support and confirmed their participation at the conference. This 4-day conference, as previously planned, promises to have in attendance over 200 international and local delegates that will convene to participate in discourses and presentations from both local and international experts in:

•        Tourism and Local Economic Development
•        Impact of Tourism on the Marine and Coastal Zones
•        Impacts of Cruise Tourism in Belize and around the world
•        Second homes, condominiums, and their impact on local communities
•        Climate Change and Tourism

The purpose of the conference is to expound on these areas and showcase how they influence the country of Belize, the region and the world at large in its development towards the responsible use of the earth’s resources, especially through the sustainable management of tourism. Registration fee for this conference is $300 USD for all delegates. This fee includes access to all conference seminars, coffee breaks, lunch breaks and an invitation to the closing ceremony festivities.  To Register please fill and submit electronically the attached application form.
