Sand Creek will be the first of five villages to take advantage of an initiative between the Ministry of Indigenous Peoples’ Affairs and the Ministry of Business for the development of ecotourism.
According to the Department of Public Information (DPI), the initiative is part of government’s plan to promote economic growth and community development.
During a recent visit by Minister of Indigenous Peoples’ Affairs, Sydney Allicock to the Region Nine community, residents signalled their interest in developing their tourism product, DPI said.
