A delegation of the Ministry of Tourism participated in the presentation of the Roadmap for Bulgaria’s accession to the OECD, and the meeting took place in the wine and spa complex Starosel.

The Ministry of Tourism was represented by Prof. Mariela Modeva. During the meeting, Deputy Minister Modeva held informal talks with representatives of the OECD mission, which is visiting Bulgaria, led by Mr. Ulrik Knudsen, Deputy Secretary General of the Organization.

Our country’s membership in the OECD will provide an excellent opportunity to develop policies for inclusive growth in tourism, to share successful practices in the industry, to promote staff support in the sector. The OECD is an extremely important platform for the interaction of the most developed economies in the world.

The Ministry of Tourism has a successful tradition of working with OECD bodies, in particular the Committee for Tourism. The adoption of the Roadmap for Bulgaria’s membership in the OECD will enhance our country’s status in the Committee, as this is another proof of the Ministry’s commitment to promoting the international expansion of the sector. This is a chance to attract more investment in tourism, within a competitive and dynamic business ecosystem. Adopting the highest standards of tourism policies will support Bulgaria’s ambition to be a leading tourist destination in the South-East Europe region.
