The Star of Tourism BiH is an annual award for the tourism sector implemented by the FBiH Chamber of Commerce.This year, USAID Turizam supported the creation of an upgraded award format, including the introduction of 10 newly designed categories incorporating criteria such as environmental protection and female participation as well as a transparent evaluation procedure, a new visual identity and award design and significantly improved promotion and social media presence. USAID Turizam has also supported the FBiH Chamber of Commerce in raising the award’s profile across the country by organizing two promotional events in Sarajevo and Banja Luka with an online address by Tripadvisor’s Director of Media, Destinations, Hotels and Growth Justin Reid.
USAID Turizam has partnered with the FBiH Chamber of Commerce to raise the expected standards for tourism products and services in BiH through supporting the development of the Star of Tourism award and thus publicly recognizing distinguished individuals, companies and organizations and celebrating their achievements. The recognition of excellence will lead to a ripple effect in the tourism sector, enticing others to follow suit and work on raising the quality of their own products and services.
