Centre for research and and sustainability studies in tourism launched

The Centre for Research and Sustainability Studies in Tourism(CRST) will be inaugurated on the 26th of September, at the Galadari Hotel in Colombo, with the participation of industry professionals and associations, as part of the World Tourism Day celebrations.

Tourism is an increasingly important area of economic activity in all countries and as such, should have a commensurate level of statistical development. However, there is more work to be done in the area of compilation of basic tourism statistics to better serve the needs of economic policy makers in governments, industry managers and business community and, at the same time provide a solid foundation for the nation's accounts in general and for Tourist Satellite Accounting (TSA) in particular.(UNWTO)

The CRST, the first of its kind is a unique think tank established with the intention of acting as an information hub to tourism and related industries.

The centre hopes to fill the current gaps in the gathering, analysis and dissemination of tourism related decision making statistics for both public and private sector organizations.

This nonprofit endeavour is the brain child of Dileep Mudadeniya, is a professional in the Tourism Industry armed with a robust portfolio of sector experience.

In addition, the Centre will receive expert guidance of an advisory committee comprising of industry stalwarts and eminent intellectuals.
