Europe's Voice of Tourism

Skal Europe and the UN Agenda 2030

Skal Europe is committed to supporting the United Nations’ Agenda 2030 for Sustainable Development. This global initiative sets out a framework for building a more sustainable and equitable world, with a focus on eradicating poverty, protecting the planet, and promoting prosperity for all.

As a leading voice in the tourism industry, Skal Europe has a key role to play in advancing the goals of Agenda 2030. The organization has identified several areas where it can make a meaningful contribution, including promoting sustainable tourism practices, supporting local communities, and advocating for policies and initiatives that align with the principles of Agenda 2030.

One of the ways that Skal Europe is working to promote sustainable tourism is through its Sustainable Tourism Awards program. This program recognizes businesses and organizations in the tourism industry that are making significant strides in promoting sustainability and responsible tourism practices. The awards help to raise awareness of the importance of sustainable tourism and to encourage other businesses to adopt similar practices.

Skal Europe is also working to support local communities through a range of initiatives, such as promoting local food and beverage products, supporting local cultural events, and promoting responsible tourism practices that respect local traditions and customs. These efforts help to ensure that the benefits of tourism are shared more equitably with local communities and that tourism is seen as a positive force for economic and social development.

Finally, Skal Europe is working to advocate for policies and initiatives that align with the principles of Agenda 2030. The organization is actively engaging with policymakers and other stakeholders to promote sustainable tourism practices and to ensure that tourism is recognized as a key driver of sustainable development.

In conclusion, Skal Europe is committed to supporting the goals of Agenda 2030 through a range of initiatives and programs. By promoting sustainable tourism practices, supporting local communities, and advocating for policies that align with the principles of Agenda 2030, Skal Europe is helping to build a more sustainable and equitable world for all.
