This year's conference offers an extremely exciting programme with representation from all sides of the tourism spectrum.  The conference theme centres around the 'co-creation' of the tourism curriculum.  With this in mind, all the key stakeholder groups will be given a platform at the annual conference, government, industry, higher education academics and students and we are very excited to hear from such  experienced and eminent speakers.
