In 1998 Belize developed its first-ever national tourism strategy. The Blackstone Report, as it is commonly referred to, established the context for tourism development within Belize and called for a moderate growth scenario that aimed for a 4% compound average annual growth rate and an increase of 20,000 in visitor numbers over a five year period; allowing Belize to develop a niche in small-scale rather than mass tourism.
The National Tourism Strategy for Belize was prepared in 1998. Considerable changes have taken place within the country's tourism industry and the global tourism sector has undergone significant transformations that influence Belize's market position
The Belize Tourism Board is a statutory Board within the Ministry of Tourism which represents a strategic partnership between government and the private sector to develop, market and implement tourism programs that will fulfill the emerging needs of our local industries and the international tourism market place for the benefit of Belize and Belizeans. This is the BTB's workplan for 2008-2009.
