Sustainable Tourism & Development

Course details

Now more than ever, customers expect travel and tourism services to be environmentally conscious. Likewise, governments worldwide are clamping down on service providers that don’t make every effort to operate in a responsible, sustainable manner. It is the responsibility of every employee working in the travel and tourism sector to contribute to sustainability. Across the world, the environment is no longer seen as an afterthought when creating and offering travel and tourism services. If anything, the opposite is becoming the norm – environmental issues taking precedence over just about everything else.
This important tutorial is ideally-suited to anyone looking to work in the travel and tourism industry at any level. Explore the roles and responsibilities of key service providers within the industry, along with the benefits of sustainable development for current and future generations. Study sustainable tourism and development approaches, the consequences of irresponsible activity on the part of tourism sector and how every business at every level plays its own unique part in driving sustainability.
