About
The UNWTO 2030 Sustainable Development Goals are thought to stimulate action in supporting change in policies, business practices and consumer behaviour towards a more sustainable tourism sector.
The 2019 Global Youth Travel Award for Social Responsibility recognises organisations that give back to the local or global community through innovative social projects. We are looking for an inspiring example of an organisation giving back to the community.
Examples might include efforts in sustainability, business ethics, best practices, development or activities such as sponsorship of a local charity, running a not-for-profit initiative or even a full-scale Corporate and Social Responsibility programme.
