MONA

MONA, the Mission of Tourism Organisations in Nouvelle-Aquitaine, supports the people and organisations working in institutional tourism across the French region. Its network includes tourism offices, departmental tourism agencies and committees, the regional tourism committee, local authorities, natural regional parks and other territorial organisations, representing around 2,000 employees. MONA’s purpose is to help these professionals in their daily work through practical resources, services and professional development.

The organisation offers a catalogue of training courses and network events covering topics such as tourism promotion and communication, organisational management, budgeting and climate-related challenges. Sessions take place online or in person, alongside opportunities for members to exchange ideas and co-develop approaches. MONA also shares news, examples and experience from across its network, highlighting initiatives in areas including podcasting, sustainability and workplace inclusion. Its website provides access to resources, job opportunities, an extranet and information about the regional tourism network. With an engaged and expert team, MONA works to strengthen professional skills and collaboration among tourism organisations throughout Nouvelle-Aquitaine.
