We are convinced that the tourism industry is a driving force in building a profitable and responsible tourism model that respects the oceans and mitigates climate change.
We are therefore committed to integrating environmental protection, social and economic well-being, and cultural heritage in our areas of influence into our business strategy.
This decade is the time for action to address climate change, biodiversity loss and equitable value chains. This approach to business involves taking on the major global challenges of sustainable development and climate change. In this sense, our commitment to being a leader in responsible tourism is aligned with each and every one of the 17 United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, maximising efforts to achieve them and exploring all lines of action.
Since 2017, we have launched a series of actions promoting the improvement of the oceans, which materialised with the launch of the Wave of Change, movement, which is now an essential pillar of the Group’s management policy.
