Stay Connected: SATSA’s WhatsApp Network Groups Continue to Add Value
SATSA’s WhatsApp Network Groups have become integral to fostering collaboration, information-sharing, and industry support across the Southern African tourism sector. What started as an initiative to strengthen communication has now evolved into well-established, high-value platforms where members actively engage, exchange insights, and stay ahead of industry developments.
SATSA Tourism Safety Network
With over 900 participants, the SATSA Tourism Safety Network remains a vital resource for real-time, on-the-ground updates related to tourism safety. This group ensures that members can swiftly navigate disruptions, minimising their impact on guests and maintaining the high standards expected in Southern Africa’s tourism industry. This community's collective vigilance and shared expertise reinforce the industry’s commitment to safety and seamless visitor experiences.
SATSA Advice Network
The SATSA Advice Network, with 650+ members, serves as a hub for industry professionals to seek guidance, share knowledge, and collaborate on solutions. Whether addressing operational challenges, regulatory queries, or best practices, this group remains a go-to resource for tourism businesses looking to enhance their efficiency and service delivery.
An Engaged & Proactive Industry Community
Both networks exemplify the power of industry-wide collaboration, with members offering practical insights, strategic advice, and real-time information. SATSA and its partners remain committed to monitoring industry trends and challenges, ensuring these platforms remain relevant and valuable.
Beyond communication tools, these groups have become dynamic communities of practice—spaces where industry professionals can connect, problem-solve, and collectively drive the sector forward. Their ongoing success reflects the strength of the SATSA membership and the commitment to fostering a resilient, informed, and proactive tourism industry.
