Financing of nature protection and regeneration

Include community tourism enterprises and suppliers who dedicate tourism to actively reverse biodiversity loss and regenerate nature.

Nature Positive and Community Tourism

Indigenous Peoples involvement: Activities take place on land owned by Indigenous community or the supplier is majority indigenous-owned, managed, or staffed.examples:

• Sami-owned suppliers in Norway
• activities in Puracé National Natural Park in Colombia (indigenous owned land)
• activities in community owned reserves in Brazilian Amazonas.

For example: suppliers who advocate for the extension of protected or conserved area, protect facility grounds, participate in reforestation or rewilding. example: Esteros del Ibera Park, Argentina run by Rewilding Argentina Activities include horse riding, kayaking, and night safaris, all aimed at supporting the rewilding efforts and educating visitors about the importance of biodiversity and local conservation initiatives.

Every trip and euro spent on these suppliers will maximize the impact of your itinerary. It directly finances community development with multiplier effects for your destination, as well as the protection and restoration of nature.

Growing business for empowered communities and healthy nature

For example: Activities in a well-managed national park where fees support the park’s work or suppliers regularly sponsoring trusted NGOs and projects example. Moniek’s itinerary in Madagascar includes visiting Nosy Hara National Park, certified through the IUCN Green List, for its well-managed conservation area
