AGP Executive Report
Last update: 10 hours agoUNESCO & Heritage Tourism: Six former plantation “rocas” on São Tomé and Príncipe—built on slavery and forced labor—were added to UNESCO’s World Heritage List, with private investors now showing interest in turning the largely abandoned sites (including the Sundy plantation on Príncipe) into tourism-ready heritage, alongside a proposed 10-year restoration push. Culture on Stage: The open-air Tchiloli theatre tradition on São Tomé is still drawing residents and visitors, with performers saying its medieval justice themes—passed down in Old Portuguese—keep it relevant and worth the long rehearsals and performances.

Aviation for Island Access: euroAtlantic Airways’ long-haul widebody leasing plans and its Lisbon–São Tomé and Príncipe scheduled service are in focus as the airline shifts toward a dual-fleet approach after adding its first Airbus A330-200 in late 2025.
