Consultation for the update of the National Tourism Policy

The Consultation for the update of the National Tourism Policy was conducted between July and August 2018 by the Ministry of Tourism. The consultation was implemented through the Ministry's web portal and its objective was to collect the opinions and ideas of citizens regarding tourism in El Salvador. In this consultation, more than 1,500 surveys were completed and around 3,000 digital comments were collected. In addition, along with the electronic consultation, interviews were conducted in eight focus groups with the participation of more than 300 stakeholders from the private sector, academia, local governments, and civil society. Finally, with the inputs gathered during the consultation, the document for updating the National Tourism Policy was drafted.
