Dear Delegates

On behalf of the Organising Committee, it is a pleasure to welcome you to the 2nd Tourism and Hospitality Postgraduate Conference, hosted by the University of Zululand (UNIZULU) in partnership with Tourism Educators South Africa (TESA) and the National Open University of Nigeria (NOUN).

We look forward to bringing together delegates, students, and industry leaders from 21–25 September 2026 at Champagne Sports Resort for a week of collaboration, idea-sharing, and learning.

This conference provides an opportunity to connect, engage in meaningful discussions, and contribute to the advancement of tourism and hospitality, in line with UNIZULU’s commitment to quality, innovation, and societal impact. The programme has been designed to offer engaging presentations, interactive sessions, and valuable networking opportunities.

We extend our sincere thanks to our speakers, partners, sponsors, and members of the organising and scientific committees for making this event possible.

We look forward to welcoming you and wish you a rewarding and enjoyable conference experience.
