Ethiopia called for stronger tourism cooperation among BRICS members and partner countries at a ministerial meeting in Jaipur on August 23, 2026.
According to Fana Broadcasting Corporate, the Ethiopian delegation presented tourism as a strategic avenue for economic growth, sustainable development and closer people-to-people relations. It also highlighted Ethiopia’s cultural heritage in making the case for greater cooperation.
The intervention places tourism within Ethiopia’s broader engagement with BRICS, linking the country’s visitor economy to international partnerships. The source report did not specify new funding commitments, visitor targets or signed agreements, so the immediate outcome is a policy proposal rather than a completed programme.
