Wahida Jaiet, director UK and Ireland of the Tunisian National Tourist Office, confirmed the award to TTG on Friday (26 June).
It recognises Tunisia’s efforts to ensure it is ready to restart its tourism industry safely as it emerges from the coronavirus crisis.
The WTTC launched what is its first global safety and hygiene stamp for tourism last month as the industry seeks to recover from the Covid-19 pandemic and rebuild traveller confidence.
