Colombe Jessie Menos, the Minister of Tourism, toured the Dominican Republic last week at the invitation of the Science and Art Foundation organizer of the 2nd edition of the World Ecotourism and Production Fair, to be held in Buena Vista, Jarabacoa, from 16 to 26 November 2017.

At the head of a delegation of 10 senior officials from the Ministry and NGOs who promote ecotourism as a means of development in Haiti, including agronomist Jean Camille Bissereth, President of the Foundation for Alternative Tourism, Colombe Menos came to participate in the working committees of the 2nd World Ecotourism and Production Fair.

During the 3 days of her stay, Minister Ménos held several meetings and carried out company visits and met businessmen in Santiago and Jarabacoa. She was also received by her Dominican counterpart the Minister Francisco Javier García.

The Minister also visited the Exhibition Center in the Buena Vista Municipal District to oversee the construction of Haiti's pavilion as a partner through the Foundation for the Development of Alternative Tourism (FONDTAH).

Recall that this Fair is a great opportunity for our Haitian artists, craftsmen and creators to take advantage of this international showcase.
