The regional agritourism forum will update on the progress of the work from various Caribbean countries, take stock of lessons learned from national agritourism workshops and the implementation of actions after the workshops. It will also explore and discuss successful agritourism framework models in local, regional and tourism-related markets. It will consider the key drivers of change for the development, expansion and profitable exploitation of these links to support sustainable economic and nutritional goals objectives in the region. A review and debate of the necessary inputs for realising better organised, integrated and competitive value chains in the Caribbean agriculture and agribusiness sectors will be considered - notably skill development, finance/investment, data and information services and favourable policies.

IICA
As the specialised agency of the Inter-American System for agriculture, the Inter-American Institute for Cooperation on Agriculture (IICA) supports the efforts of the Member States to achieve agricultural development and rural well-being. The Institute provides its cooperation through daily, close and permanent collaboration with its 34 Member States, whose needs it addresses expeditiously in order to achieve increasingly inclusive, competitive and sustainable agriculture. Without a doubt, IICA’s most valuable asset is the close relationship it maintains with the beneficiaries of its work. Since our institution was founded, we have acquired a wealth of experience in areas such as technology and innovation for agriculture, agricultural health and food safety, agribusiness, agricultural trade, rural development, natural resource management and training.
