With tech, AI and digital tools forever evolving, itโ€™s important for us as tourism professionals and business owners to keep learning and exploring how these developments can help us work smarter, create better systems and grow our businesses ๐Ÿ’ป

Recently our Women In Tourism Western Cape Chairlady, Lecelin Roberts, Treasurer Lizelle Bailey and social media support Letishia Charles attended the AIfE - African Institute for Entrepreneurship Tech Talk Series for Tourism at Launchlab Stellenbosch. The morning brought together insightful speakers and panellists who shared their knowledge and perspectives on how tech has shaped their own businesses. A big thank you to Kelly Morkel , Vinnie Mzolisa, Tamiko Sher and the team for hosting such a valuable morning. And thanks to Western Cape Government Department of Economic Development and Tourism & Visit Stellenbosch for their involvement too.

At WITWC we believe that sharing knowledge and supporting one another are all part of moving our industry forward. Be sure to take advantage of the opportunities shared on our platforms so you donโ€™t miss out โœจ

๐Ÿ‡ฟ๐Ÿ‡ฆโœจ Happy Heritage Day, ! โœจ๐Ÿ‡ฟ๐Ÿ‡ฆ

Today, we celebrate the rich cultures, traditions and shared heritage that make South Africa so beautifully diverse - and the incredible women in tourism who bring these stories to life. ๐ŸŒโค๏ธ

From showcasing our landscapes and cuisine to preserving our history, welcoming visitors and empowering communities, women are an integral part of South Africaโ€™s tourism story.

To every woman in tourism: your passion, resilience and vision matter. Together, we are creating a stronger industry and a brighter future. ๐Ÿ’ซ

Today, we remember our sisters whose lives were taken by gender-based violence and femicide. ๐Ÿ–ค๐Ÿ’œ

They were daughters. Mothers. Sisters. Friends. Colleagues. Women with dreams, families and futures that mattered.

Their lives mattered. Their voices mattered. And their stories must never be forgotten.

As Women In Tourism Western Cape , we stand united against gender-based violence and femicide. We stand for women. We stand with women. And we will continue to raise our voices for a world where every woman can live with dignity, safety and freedom from violence.

Together, we remember. Together, we stand. Together, we say: enough. ๐Ÿ–ค๐Ÿ’œ

๐Ÿ’œ WITWC STANDS AGAINST GENDER-BASED VIOLENCE

As an organisation that advocates for women, Women In Tourism Western Cape stands firmly against gender-based violence in all its forms.

Every woman deserves to feel safe, respected, heard and supported - in her home, her workplace, her community and everywhere she goes.

If you or someone you know is experiencing gender-based violence, help is available through the Gender-Based Violence Command Centre (GBVCC):

๐Ÿ“ž 0800 428 428
๐Ÿ“ฑ Send a "Please Call Me" to: *120*7867 #
๐Ÿ’ฌ SMS โ€œHELPโ€ to: 31531
๐Ÿ’ป Skype: Helpme GBV

Professional social workers are available to provide assistance and support.

Supporting women means being there for one another. Sometimes a conversation, a listening ear, sharing information or simply believing someone can make a profound difference.

Let us continue to stand together, speak up and support one another. ๐Ÿ’œ
