Event Details
Sustainable tourism has become an increasingly important topic but how do we turn sustainability from a buzz word into a business advantage? How do we ‘move the green dial’, in an increasingly demanding visitor economy.
Designed for Hawke’s Bay tourism professionals, this workshop covers the sustainability fundamentals, and how to turn sustainability into a business advantage. We will provide insights and case study examples from the Asia Pacific region, along with a 90-day action plan to help you progress the next steps of your sustainability journey.
