fairwärts

Large Arrow

We are looking for fair travel packages!

fairwärts – the competition for sustainable travel – entered its third round from November 2019 until February 2020. This time, the competition focuses on biodiversity, sustainable service chain and fair encounters. An important component of the competition for german tourism companies are specially created knowledge modules on each key topic, which are freely available to all interested parties.

Our aim – promote innovation in the three thematic areas

When it comes to sustainability and responsibility towards the environment and the people involved in the destinations, tourism has a special role to play. Species-rich and intact ecosystems with impressive landscapes and high biodiversity are often the main reasons why travellers visit a particular region.

The tourism industry can support conservation measures and become active. It is also up to tourism companies to promote understanding and intercultural tolerance between communities through fair encounters between travellers and local people. Ideally, the individual sustainability measures are thought through along the entire service chain. Only with the commitment of all those involved and innovative ideas tourism can be made fit for the future.

„Be the change you want to see in the world.“
