Youth Guides Training on Cultural Tourism in Saida

In 2021, the Hariri Foundation partnered with the Municipality of Saida, MedCities, and the Municipality of Barcelona to carry out a pilot project aimed at engaging youth in promoting Saida’s historic district as an international touristic destination, in line with the local Sustainable Tourism Promotion Study. Throughout the project, the Hariri Foundation delivered training sessions and activities aimed at building the capacities of tens of youth on communications and the promotion of tourism, thus qualifying them to be local tour guides. To this day, the Hariri Foundation continues to hold trainings for local youth guides, especially to support city-wide cultural festivities.
