Sector Strategy
Heritage, hospitality and the creative industries
Eco-tourism, cultural heritage, hospitality and creative production.
National Challenge
What currently constrains the sector
Natural and cultural assets are distributed across regions that access infrastructure reaches unevenly. Creative production generates value that is frequently captured outside the country for want of domestic distribution and rights infrastructure.
NBP Strategy
Tourism & Creative Economy: the approach
Develop tourism where access, accommodation and site management can be delivered together, since any one alone produces little. Support creative industries through production and distribution capability rather than promotion alone.
Priority Programs
Program pillars across tourism & creative economy
