As the tourism industry goes through a dramatic period and many become unemployed or displaced and due to the economic downturn it is difficult for them to find employment in other sectors or industries. The share of female employment in the tourism sector is high.

It will take another one more year for the international tourism sector to return to pre-pandemic levels.

As governance is the key at the time of any crisis worldwide all countries are now prioritizing domestic tourism to prepare and adopt Travel in new normal.  Public-private partnerships will be encouraged as a model of survival. Initiatives and specific products in areas like adventure, wellness, ecotourism, cultural and gastronomy tourism, and rural tourism should be more projected as part of confidence retrieval.
