Tourism as a force for good: Community, climate and nature

Delivered in partnership with the Scottish Government, the Islands Community Tourism Learning and Networking Programme is about supporting island communities to develop sustainable, community-led tourism.

This session's theme is about exploring how island tourism can strengthen local economies and communities, support fair work and climate action, and protect and enhance cultural, natural, coastal and marine assets.

This session will cover:

• Understanding how tourism can create economic, social, cultural and environmental value

• Exploring how tourism can support climate adaptation, nature recovery and responsible stewardship of island, coastal and marine environments

• Engaging visitors positively in environmental, cultural and community initiatives

•  Exploring circular approaches and green tourism enterprise

The National Islands Plan highlights that islands are central to our identity as a nation and a core part of Scotland's international image.
