STC 2024: Frank Comito on partnership, CAST and the Caribbean tourism trailblazers we lost.
Frank Comito, former Director General of the Caribbean Hotel and Tourism Association, brings a lifetime of Caribbean tourism experience to the Caribbean Tourism Organization's Sustainable Tourism Conference 2024 in Grenada.
From the foundational CHTA-CTO-CARPHA memorandum of understanding that guided the region through the pandemic — making the Caribbean the world's fastest recovering tourism destination — to the work of the Caribbean Alliance for Sustainable Tourism on coral reef restoration, coastal marine conservation, and plastics, Comito makes the case that collaboration is not a buzzword but a proven instrument with measurable results.
He also pays tribute to two Caribbean tourism giants lost recently — John Bell and Warren Binder — whose vision for regional marketing, education, and sustainability shaped the industry for decades.
