Skål is a professional organization of tourism leaders around the
world, promoting global tourism and friendship. It is the only
international group uniting all branches of the travel and tourism
industry. Its members, the industry's managers and executives, meet at
local, national, regional and international levels to discuss and
pursue topics of common interest.
“Doing Business among friends”.
Skål is not a community organisation like Rotary or Lions, rather it
benefits and develops the professional sector, while assisting the
community at large. Skål is an Association of Tourism Professionals
which encourages and creates a network of professionals around the
world. It promotes seminars and conferences to strengthen the
industry's professionalism. Through participation in local activities
and events at all levels, members meet industry colleagues from around
the world. Here, in an atmosphere of amicale, ideas, opportunities and
industry matters, in general, may be shared on a personal and business
level.
 Skål
International today has approximately 22,000 members in 500 Clubs
throughout 90 nations. Most activities occur at local level, moving up
through National Committees, under the umbrella of Skål International,
headquartered at the General Secretariat in Torremolinos, Spain. Skål
International is governed by an Executive Committee of 7 members,
elected by delegates to an annual General Assembly, held during the
World Congress, hosted by a different country each year. This allows
members first-hand observation of the travel and tourism potential
around the world. |
