USTOA SIR Education Series: Nature-Based Solutions for Tourism

Join Charlie Darlington, Sustainability & Nature Positive Tourism Lead at Scott Dunn to learn about their partnership for nature with Conservation Collective, and how their guests have positively engaged with creating revenue for crucial, grass-roots community-led biodiversity restoration projects. With 96% of their US guests opting into a donation every time they book a trip and over $70k raised in 6 months, this partnership demonstrates the meaningful impact the tourism industry can have in connecting travellers with philanthropic causes. Charlie will explain how the partnership was formed, how the projects are selected, the financial mechanism and the communications to employees and guests.

Thank you to the USTOA SIR Education Series sponsor, Crum & Forster.
