About the Conference
The Santa Fe International Conference on Creative Tourism is the first global gathering of its kind. The conference will provide the skills and knowledge necessary for developing creative tourism programs by experiencing practical applications and through sessions with some of the world’s foremost leaders in the field. Key to the learning process will be the participation of UNESCO Creative Cities Network representatives; a group of international experts who will share background information, advice, and lessons from their own creative tourism programs. This concept of cities helping cities is fundamental to the Creative Cities Network charter.
Founding Members of the UNESCO Creative Cities Network include:
Montreal, Edinburgh, Seville, Berlin, Bologna, Aswan, Popayan, Santa Fe and Buenos Aries.
The Creative Cities Network was born out of the Global Alliance for Cultural Diversity initiative, set up in 2002 by UNESCO.
