What is “sustainable tourism”?

Sustainability

According to the World Tourism Organization, sustainable tourism “addresses the needs of travelers, the industry, the environment, and host communities, taking full account of its current and future economic, social, and environmental impacts.”

 

With a focus on sustainable tourism, Switzerland implements its own strategy called Swisstainable.

Swisstainable’s main goal is to :

  • Help tourists experience nature up close and personal.
  • Discover the local culture in its truest form.
  • Purchase and consume local goods
  • Stay longer and explore farther
