WTTC – Tourism for Tomorrow Awards
Tourism for Tomorrow is WTTC’s vision for the sustainable future of the Travel & Tourism sector, based on integrating the needs of ‘people, planet, and profits’.
Under WTTC stewardship, Tourism for Tomorrow Awards is an annual programme aimed at recognising examples of best practice in sustainability from Travel & Tourism across the world.
Each year we look to reward businesses and organisations whose commitments to sustainability and long-term vision have not only helped to shape international standards for environmentally and socially responsible tourism, but also have demonstrated how tourism can be a force for good. These businesses benefit local people, support cultural diversity, and advance biodiversity conservation, all within a viable and profitable business model.
Over the years we have recognised all types of businesses from small eco-lodges to large corporate organisations, which are developing a skilled workforce and using innovative solutions while stimulating consumer interest and understanding of sustainable tourism practice.

“Tourism for Tomorrow is tourism which optimises the economic, environmental, social and cultural impacts of the industry. It serves to engage both Travel & Tourism businesses and tourists with the people and the places they visit and acts as a force for good.”
