Abstract

Boosting economic growth is one of the major Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) that prioritized the direction of sustainable tourism investment and development for a nation. This is the absolute economic goal that Bangladesh can attain by ensuring a sustainable tourism environment through Green investment and development in the tourism industry. For this purpose, Bangladeshi tourism public agencies including Ministry of Civil Aviation and Tourism (MOCAT), Bangladesh Parjatan Corporation (BPC), Bangladesh Tourism Board (BTB), Biman Bangladesh Airlines Limited update their constitutional roles, plans, and activities to boost the industry growth and GDP. These organizations are currently working on tourism-based mega projects in the coastal zone of Bangladesh to attract tourists and investors. Instead of this, these agencies should initiate a long-term sustainable incentive system that will attract both foreign and domestic investors who may invest in tourism development projects in Bangladesh. This chapter addresses how public agencies play a vanguard role in Bangladesh’s tourism industry’s investment and development.
