On Wednesday, September 12th, the British Guild of Travel Writers conducted a first round of voting for their annual Tourism Awards. The USAID-sponsored Nyungwe Nziza Project, for which SW Associates has been a sub-contractor for the past two years, was voted as one of the three best “Overseas Projects/Attractions” by BGTW members. The overall winner will be selected at an Awards dinner on Sunday, November 4th at the Savoy Hotel in London.

We are pleased that the Nyungwe Nziza Project, which is being implemented with the Rwanda Development Board and Nyungwe National Park team, has been recognized by the UK’s top travel journalists as one of the world’s top tourism development projects. There is a lot more work to be done, but it is good to know that the Guild sees the Park deserving of continued support.
