Would you like your organisation and your destination to be more sustainable?
Barcelona and its counties aspire to sustainable tourism by harmonising the economic growth derived from tourism with the protection of natural and cultural resources, and by ensuring a social return to the local community.
The "Destination Barcelona Commitment to Sustainable Tourism" programme invites companies and destinations to adopt socially and environmentally responsible practices.
What is it?
The Destination Barcelona Commitment to Sustainable Tourism recognises those tour operators that are committed to responsible management that respects the environment, culture, working conditions, gender equality and social and economic return.
