The new campaign from the National Inbound & Domestic Tourism Association of Moldova, “MOLDOVA – Discover the routes of life”, joined the CIFFT Circuit 2023, a global competition where tourism ads and videos run for the coveted title of the World’s Best Tourism Film.
The set of promotional videos has a clear goal: To represent Moldova as an attractive tourism destination, showcasing its unique tourism offerings and immersive travel experiences, filled with connection to local people and nature, full of great local food and wine, and fun.
The campaign is part of the promotion strategy of Moldova in Social Media. By participating in the CIFFT Circuit 2023, the country intends to increase visibility in the Tourism Industry and demonstrate its commitment to excellence and innovation in tourism communication.
Throughout the year, “MOLDOVA – Discover the routes of life” will pass through international festivals worldwide, and it is expected that the new video can bring international awards and recognition to the destination.
The video selection was awarded with the silver prize at the CIFFT, the World Tourism Film Festival in Japan, in the “Tourism Destination Country” category.
This is a very important moment and we are glad that our efforts to promote Moldova’s tourist destinations have been recognized in this way. We are committed to continue developing and promoting tourism in the Republic of Moldova and to strengthen our country’s position as an attractive and quality tourist destination.
The award ceremony was attended by His Excellency, the Head of the Diplomatic Mission of the Embassy of the Republic of Moldova in Japan, Mr Dumitru Socolan.
