Abstract

This paper try to highlight the efforts made by the Algerian government to develop tourism sector by trying to reinforce its relationship with the private sector in order to benefit from this partnership in developing sustainable tourism. The results of the analysis showed that in recent years Algeria had realized the importance of tourism and grasped its imperative. This situation was featured by some initiatives from the public authorities in order to promote and develop this sector through the Public Private Partnership Plan for tourism which form the reference for a new policy adopted by the state and is a part of the national plan to develop the region in the prospects of 2030. But despite all these efforts, they are still considered not enough in comparison with the priority assigned by the government to other sectors.
