Revisioning Tourism for Good - November 10, 2023
Visitors to beautiful sites around the globe are enriched through their experiences. Yet that enrichment can come at a price for the environment and the local culture. But it doesn’t have to. Join us for this event to explore creative ways of engaging with the planet - both abroad and at home. Participants will learn about citizen science and regenerative tourism in the Arctic ecosystems of Norway, get an insider's perspective on building the local economy while preserving its natural beauty in coastal Jones County, NC, and find out about the potential positive impact of Boone’s first sustainable bed and breakfast. Be a part of the conversation.
