The Aboriginal Tourism Association of British Columbia (AtBC) is a non-profit, membership-based organization that is committed to growing and promoting a sustainable, culturally rich Aboriginal tourism industry.
A sustainable Aboriginal tourism sector with diverse products in communities in every region of the province is recognized as one of the major focuses for achieving the target set by the Premier to double tourism revenues in B.C. by 2015.
Through training, information resources, networking opportunities and co-operative marketing programs, AtBC is a one-stop resource for Aboriginal entrepreneurs and communities in British Columbia who are operating or looking to start a tourism business. AtBC works closely with tourism, business, education and government organizations to help B.C.‘s Aboriginal tourism businesses offer quality experiences and actively promotes these experiences to visitors and local residents.
The Aboriginal Tourism Association of BC (AtBC) wrapped up the second annual National Aboriginal Tourism Opportunities Conference, which took place April 3-4, by recognizing its stakeholders and supporters at the 2013 AtBC Industry Awards.
The Province of British Columbia has provided $1 million to support the growth of Aboriginal tourism in B.C.
