We, the participants of the First Rainbow International Tourism Conference in Nepal, hereby declare our unwavering commitment to promoting diversity and inclusivity within the tourism industry. Recognizing the transformative power of tourism in fostering global understanding and unity, we pledge to work together to create an environment of acceptance and respect for all travelers.

Through collaborative efforts with key stakeholders, including the Nepal Tourism Board, international organizations such as the World Bank and USAID, and the vibrant private sector, we endeavor to champion initiatives that celebrate the rich tapestry of human diversity. Our goal is to ensure that every individual, regardless of background or identity, feels valued and welcomed in our tourism destinations.

During this historic conference, we have delved into critical topics such as LGBTI+ travel, accessible tourism, cultural sensitivity, and community engagement. Through insightful discussions, innovative strategies, and shared experiences, we have laid the foundation for a more inclusive and equitable tourism sector.

This groundbreaking initiative reflects Nepal’s steadfast dedication to becoming a beacon of inclusivity in global tourism. As we move forward, we pledge to uphold the principles of diversity, equity, and respect, striving to create a world where every traveler feels embraced and empowered.
