 INTRODUCTION:

On its road to secure its place under the sun, Republic of Macedonia
faces a number of challenges that constitute an important test of the
nation’s commitment to improvement.
One of these challenges relates to the sustainable tourism promotion and
sustainable regional development.
The Republic of Macedonia takes current efforts to elaborate a policy of
sustainable tourism promotion and balanced regional development.
The main effort of policy making is developed in accordance with EU
specifications and modern world trends.
This document will represent an account of priorities aimed to create
successful projects that will provide multi-level support to Macedonia’s
tourism promotion policy and regional development program. With this
ACTION PLAN we will try to emphasize the importance of the different
stakeholder’s role and necessity of networking among them. In this course
it’s an outmost importance establishment and maintenance of tourism
associations or organizations that can be functional on National,
Regional and Local level.
The priorities in recommendations for future efforts are focused on the
optimum utilization of Macedonia’s cultural and natural heritage through
strengthening existing capacities and promotion of tourist organization
on national and regional level.
