Cape Verde has been highlighted in a recent report by the WiTH Africa platform as one of the six African countries with the highest level of accessibility to tourism data on the continent. This recognition, featured on a Portuguese website, comes from a collaboration between the Nova SBE Data Science Knowledge Center and the Nova SBE Westmont Institute of Tourism & Hospitality. The report, titled "Tourism Data Ecosystem in Africa – Challenges and Opportunities for Sustainable Growth," uses the "Ease of Access Score" system to evaluate the availability and frequency of statistical data publication by national statistics agencies in each African country.
