Furthermore, the UHPA sign, as a sign of trust and quality, can be found in 413 offices of our members UHPA also represents the interests of its members at the international level as a regular member of ECTAA and associated member of UNWTO. We are very proud that UHPA, even before Croatia became the full member of EU, took over the twoyear presidency of ECTAA. Mr. Boris Žgomba, the President of UHPA, is also the President of ECTAA, while the director of UHPA was elected for the position of the President of ECTAA’s Incoming Tourism Working Group for the mandate period from 2012 to 2014.
