Regenerative Tourism Design (RTD) combines theoretical elements of systems thinking with practical design tools adopted from case studies identified in the Global Tourism Risk Index. 

Regenerative is a portmanteau that is being applied in economics, agriculture, culture, architecture, and tourism. This research examines the ways and places in which regenerative principles are applied to tourism. With the accumulation of case studies, we hope to develop a toolkit of regenerative practices that mitigate risk so that mutual learning can take place across different geographic and cultural contexts.
