 World Responsible Tourism Day

WTM World Responsible Tourism Day
Over the past years, World Travel Market has dedicated one day to responsible tourism through a programme encouraging debate, discussion and action, highlighting case studies and best practice and participation by all sectors of the industry.

Responsible tourism is not a passing trend. As more and more governments, businesses, organisations - and consumers - recognise the importance of responsible tourism, the subject has risen to the top of the industry agenda.

With the support of the World Tourism Organization, the third WTM World Responsible Tourism Day took place on Wednesday 12 November 2009.

To coincide with World Responsible Tourism Day at World Travel Market, WTM is asking companies and organisations across the industry to show their support and undertake their own responsible tourism initiatives.

A detailed Support Pack is available with suggestions and ideas to inspire you and your colleagues to participate in this major global initiative. For further information contact the WRTD team.
