The Ecotourism Spotlight Award is announced in advance of World Tourism Day (September 27) as way of pointing out best practices within government institutions.

WINNING TIPS

Government websites are advised to:
1) Create an informative, content-rich website that provides detailed information for visitors seeking eco-friendly, people-friendly and place-friendly travel. Provide direct links to local operations and seek input from those at the vanguard of in-country ecotourism on making your
site even better for national and international visitors.

Ecotourism Laos recently overhauled its growing activities section, expanded the monthly What's New page and added a Virtual Tour of Laos. A hotel booking engine along with greater use of Web 2.0 tools are in the pipeline.
