St. Lucia: Officials to Increase Safety for Tourists, Engage Marginalized Communities

By Larry Habegger | Permalink | No Comments | February 3rd, 2010 | Trackback

Tourism officials vowed to increase safety for tourists following a decision by Norwegian Cruise Lines to remove the island from its itineraries in the 2011-2012 season. The company dropped St. Lucia because of three attacks on cruise passengers in 2009. Tourism officials will work with police to reduce crime, including launching a public awareness campaign to emphasize the importance of tourism to the island’s economy, and plan to take the message especially to marginalized communities to find ways to help them participate in tourism development.
