South-Estonia Tourist Board participates in Äksi [eel]opinion festival
The South-Estonia Tourist Board is preparing to take part in the Äksi [eel]Festival of Opinion to discuss the important and topical issue of “Sustainable travel: how to leave a positive trace?”.
The Äksi Opinion Festival is known for its open and inclusive atmosphere, where specialists and interested people from different fields can discuss topics of importance to society. The South-Estonia Tourism Cluster focuses on sustainable travel and its impact on the environment and communities.
Sustainable travel is a topic that becomes more topical every year. The global climate crisis and a growing awareness of the need to protect the environment have made people think about how their travel and holidays affect the planet. Through this discussion, the South-Estonia Tourism Cluster wants to raise awareness and find practical solutions on how to travel in a way that benefits tourists, local communities and nature.
The debate will address a number of key questions: what steps can tourism operators take to reduce their carbon footprint? How can travellers make more informed choices? What are the best practices and examples of sustainable tourism in Estonia and around the world? In addition, it will explore how to work with local communities to ensure their involvement and benefit from tourism.
South Estonia is renowned for its beautiful nature and rich cultural heritage, which offer great opportunities for sustainable travel. The Tourism Cluster is committed to helping tourism businesses in the region to adopt sustainable practices and offer visitors unique and environmentally friendly experiences.
Participating in the Äksi Think Festival is a great opportunity to bring together different stakeholders and create a fruitful dialogue on sustainable tourism. The South-Estonia Tourism Cluster invites everyone to participate and have their say to find ways to leave a positive mark and make travel sustainable.
Äksi [eel]opinionfestival will take place on 20. For the second time on July, both in front of and inside the Ice Age Centre.
