Resources

Climate Change

The climate crisis requires the urgent dissemination of solutions and timely action to mitigate this immediate threat to the tourism sector and the planet. We work to bring accessible resources to the sector on climate change mitigation, adaptation, and de-carbonization, among other topics. 

Biodiversity & Cultural Heritage

A staple since our founding, our work in this area is designed to draw attention to key issues, equip tourism practitioners with data and information they need to make sound decisions, and lead tourists down a responsible path.

Overtourism

Destinations can address overtourism through strategic planning, good management, and active monitoring of tourism’s impacts. Over the years, we have developed and gathered a variety of tools and case studies to share. 

The Wealth Gap

We believe we must prioritize the well-being of local communities if we are to ensure the well-being of the destination itself. We seek to support sustainable development by promoting fair income distribution, support for local businesses, and strong worker rights within the tourism industry. 

Responsible Travel

Through our almost twenty-year history, we have developed a wide range of resources on sustainable and responsible tourism. These resources share outcomes from our projects and add to the general knowledge base of responsible tourism.
