Nepal Hosts First International Rainbow Tourism Conference
The International Rainbow Tourism Conference held in Kathmandu on April 20, 2024, marked Nepal’s effort to promote itself as a safe and welcoming destination for LGBT tourists. Organized by Mayako Pahichan Nepal and the Nepal Tourism Board, the event aimed to integrate diversity and inclusivity into Nepal’s tourism strategy. This aligns with global trends in Rainbow tourism, a sector valued at over $200 billion, catering specifically to LGBT travellers who value inclusive destinations with progressive laws. Despite significant advances, challenges remain, including the need for legal protections in various destinations.
