Bungoma County Tourism Policy 2020

Abstract

Tourism is the third largest contributor to our National Gross Domestic Product after agriculture and manufacturing. Bungoma County despite having enormous potential in attractions, hospitality and labour has to harness tourism as a vehicle that shall not only contribute to economic development but also put Bungoma County on the national and even global tourism map. The policy proposes strategies to ensure the tourism sector becomes a leading revenue earner for the County Government and a major socio-economic force as the County tourism sector has been touted as a sleeping giant. Therefore, this Bungoma County Tourism Policy outlines the framework within which sustainable county tourism development to international standards shall be undertaken.
