WTM World Responsible Tourism Programme

Welcome to WTM World Responsible Tourism Day  

WTM World Responsible Tourism Day on Wednesday 11th November was a huge success.

This was the third successful year of this initiative, the only global day of action of its kind sponsored by BBC World News and once again supported by the UNWTO.

WTM World Responsible Tourism Day 2009 attracted over 2,000 participants to the challenging and thought provoking programme, details of what happened on the day will be updated shortly.

Travel and tourism companies and organisations in the world are under increasing pressure to work more responsibly.

WTM World Responsible Tourism Day is your chance to get involved and debate the issues.
