Sustainable tourism in Asia Pacific
Travel that benefits the places people visit
Across Asia Pacific, ATTIA’s Members are working to spread the benefits of tourism to more communities and to help travellers make more sustainable choices.
Three ways the industry makes a difference
More places, wider benefits
Online platforms help travellers discover secondary destinations and local hosts, spreading tourism spending beyond the usual hotspots.
Clearer choices for travellers
Labels and better information, such as highlighting lower-emission flights, make it easier to choose more sustainable trips.
Partnership with destinations
Members work with tourism authorities, local communities and industry coalitions to support long-term tourism growth.
