Black caviar factory in Belarus opens its doors to tourists

Tourism occupies a strategic position in several BRICS countries and across the Global South, which have been adopting measures to attract foreign visitors and strengthen various segments of the tourism industry.

In Indonesia, the Ministry of Tourism is supporting the organisation of 125 cultural and tourism events across various regions of the country as part of a strategy to boost the sector. Key initiatives include promoting sustainable tourism and encouraging the development of tourism communities and small local businesses. According to ANTARA, as a result, the country welcomed 4.68 million foreign visitors between January and April 2026, a figure 8.24 per cent higher than that recorded in the same period the previous year.

In this context, Tunisia and Brazil are developing joint initiatives to expand tourism exchanges, including measures to increase the flow of visitors between the two countries. The planned actions include participation in specialised trade fairs and the organisation of Tunisia Week in Brazil, an event aimed at promoting Tunisian tourist destinations and handicrafts in the Brazilian market, as reported by Tunis Afrique Presse (TAP), a partner of TV BRICS.

Zimbabwe has also been strengthening its presence in the Asian market through tourism promotion campaigns, strategic partnerships and improvements to air connectivity. The Herald, a partner of TV BRICS, reported that these efforts are already bearing fruit. In the first quarter of 2026, the number of visitors from Asia rose by 26 per cent compared with the same period in 2025, consolidating China’s position as the main source market for Asian tourists to the country.
