| Sophie Ibbotson, Uzbekistan’s Tourism Ambassador to the UK and author of three editions of the Bradt Guide to the country, shines a light on this rapidly emerging visitor destination, sitting at the heart of the Silk Road. Sophie will focus her talk on how visitors can go beyond sustainable tourism and use their trip to really make a difference to local communities, while having a fantastic experience among breath-taking scenery and world-famous historical sites. This is an essential talk for anyone who’s toured Uzbekistan, has it on their must-visit list, or simply wants to know more about this unique country!
