The RETURN Approach: Ensuring Tourism Revenue Benefits Host Communities

"THE BEST TURNS ARE THE ONES THAT LEAD BACK TO NATURE AND COMMUNITY".

OUR APPROACH
We believe in a regenerative approach to tourism that ensures local communities, nature conservation, and climate adaptation directly benefit from tourism revenues. Our goal is to assist decision-makers by providing knowledge of successful tourism revenue transfer models that focus especially on the social, cultural, and environmental sustainability of the tourism destinations.
