TOURISM FOR SDGs

Tourism can:

  • Give to people the opportunity to prosper in their place of origin
  • Contribute to economic integration and diversification

AN EXAMPLE

Educating and empowering local communities for sustainable tourism futures, the Sumba hospitality foundation, Indonesia.

The Sumba Hospitality Foundation is initiating a sustainable tourism development plan for Sumba through the concept of full boarding permaculture school and green hotel for underprivileged Sumbanese youth providing vocational education, focusing on practical and soft skills, nurturing environmental awareness and cultural identity and empowering local communities to promote responsible tourism.


ANOTHER EXAMPLE

MiBarrio- Mercado de Hacienda Applied research project, in Argentina.

It's aim is to improve the livelihood of the communities through tourism development. The extensive screening of the different neighborhoods allowed the city of Buenos Aires to identify less touristic urban areas and develop, in collaboration with the local inhabitants, new tourism products to specifically tackle the economic and social issues faced by the inhabitants. The resulting tourism experiences contribute to give a voice to the communities enhancing their unique identity while fostering social inclusion, entrepreneurship as well as the economic development of the area.
