SECSA CHRIE believes in continuous development of individuals. One way to do this, is to get hospitality academics and professionals from our SECSA CHRIE constituency across the South Eastern United States, Caribbean, Central and South American nations to explore mutual interests and building closer collaborative research and business networks. As an important and integral part of its mission, and through the organization of conferences and group meetings the SECSA CHRIE Federation thus actively promotes research collaboration and network building for all our members and constituencies.
