AGP Executive Report

Last update: 18 minutes ago

Tourism Governance Reset: Seychelles has reinstated the Seychelles Tourism Board, effective 15 May 2026, with Vesna Rakić appointed CEO to rebuild destination marketing and strengthen tourism governance after five years under a centralized framework. Marine Governance & Cooperation: Monaco’s Explorations de Monaco presented its 2022 Indian Ocean mission report, delivering 25 recommendations focused on protecting marine ecosystems, managing fisheries sustainably, reducing human pressures, and boosting regional cooperation across waters shared with Mauritius, Seychelles and Saya de Malha Bank. Climate & Methane Diplomacy: A Seychelles delegation joined a regional workshop on methane and climate action in Nairobi, with National Assembly members representing the Parliamentary Steering Committee for climate finance work. Blue Economy, Local Action: Seychelles also hosted a continental push for better humanitarian coordination, while regional partners discussed strengthening crisis response across Africa—an issue closely tied to climate-linked disasters and food and health pressures. Wildlife & Health Research: New findings on Seychelles warblers link cooperative breeding at nests with more similar anaerobic gut bacteria sharing, highlighting how social behaviour can shape wildlife health. Tourism on the Ground: President Patrick Herminie visited La Digue’s tourism information office, hearing calls for stronger visitor safety measures, better luggage facilities, cleaner nature trails, clearer road signage, and safer buggy use for cyclists. Ocean Tourism Spotlight: Seychelles remains a top scuba destination, with dive highlights including Aldabra Atoll, Sainte Anne Marine National Park, and Curieuse Island.
