Panel 2: Entrepreneurship In Tourism – A Chance Towards Female Empowerment
March 05, 2020
17:00 - 17:45 h
CityCube Berlin, Hall A1
- The empowerment of women is one of the most effective methods to foster positive change in emerging and developing economies.
- Female entrepreneurs tend to be discouraged by social and cultural constructs, lacking access to start-up financing, knowledge about business management and political conditions.
- Unfortunately, the tourism industry is no exemption.
- Yet, although women account for the biggest share of workers in the tourism industry, there is a clear lack of women in leadership positions in this sector.
- With the female panelists we discuss how tourism can be an industry of change for women entrepreneurs in our partner countries.
- Experience has shown, the more dynamic a sector is, the more opportunities for an inclusive participation arise, especially in times of rapid transformation in technology and digitalization.
- Moreover, we debate questions about gender equality in business, participation and access opportunities to tourism markets and leadership from the perspective of female champions and experts in tourism.
