The Empowering Rural Tourism SMEs in Palestine initiative aims to support small and medium-sized rural tourism enterprises in expanding their activities internationally through tailored support, capacity building, and market access opportunities.
The program focuses on tailored strategic support for SMEs, specialized training and expert coaching, access to regional networks and markets, opportunities to participate in trade shows, and assessment of international expansion potential to design customized growth plans.
This initiative is part of the CReSInMed project and is designed to help Palestinian rural tourism SMEs better understand their current level of readiness for international expansion. It uses a structured approach involving simple questions to assess business activities, needs, and capabilities, enabling the development of personalized strategies for growth and entry into new markets.
Through this support, participating SMEs are guided to strengthen innovation, sustainability, and cross-border competitiveness, while building stronger connections within regional and international tourism ecosystems.
