Around 300-400 delegates are expected to attend from around the region.
The Organising Committee is working closely with the local Larrakia people who will welcome delegates and especially representatives of Indigenous peoples from around the world.

Most issues affecting the development of Indigenous tourism in individual countries are common throughout the region. For it to be increasingly successful, Indigenous tourism needs to develop beyond its stereotypical and marginal role and to be brought to the mainstream of tourism.
PAITC’s programme will feature several top international speakers, and will be a great an opportunity to exchange experiences and knowledge
The main purpose of the conference will be to establish the role of tourism in Indigenous advancement and cultural preservation and define the role of Indigenous tourism experiences as a vehicle for cultural understanding, tolerance and sustainability.
