The panel discussion will be moderated by Monelle Alexis, Communications and Public Relations Specialist at the Discover Dominica Authority.
“When people think about wellness tourism, they often think about spas and retreats. In Dominica, wellness is also found in our rivers, hot springs, local foods, traditional practices and the ways people connect with nature,” said Odile Jno Baptiste, Product Promotions Manager at the Discover Dominica Authority. “This discussion will highlight how those experiences can create opportunities for communities and entrepreneurs while contributing to the well-being of both residents and visitors.”
Tourism stakeholders, wellness practitioners, entrepreneurs, students, community organizations and members of the public are encouraged to attend and participate in the discussion. Participants will also have an opportunity to engage directly with panelists during an interactive question-and-answer segment.
The 2026 Tourism Awareness Program seeks to increase public understanding of tourism’s contribution to national development while encouraging greater participation in initiatives that support the sector. This year’s focus on wellness highlights the role of Dominica’s natural assets, wellness experiences and local expertise in creating benefits for residents, communities and visitors alike.

It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using ‘Content here, content here’, making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for ‘lorem ipsum’ will uncover many web sites still in their infancy.
