Monday 20 April at 16:00 there will be an online meeting for a moment of discussion dedicated to the Erasmus+ BAG project - Bring Ability and knowledge in sustainable tourism.
The meeting begins with a clear objective: collect the points of view of the host communities and listen to their experiences, everyday, puts more responsible and green reception models into practice. These realities do not represent simple isolated initiatives, but they are an integral part of a broader strategy: build a sustainable tourism ecosystem, aware and innovative, capable of combining territorial development, environmental respect and valorisation of people.
In the current phase of the project, we are conducting a research survey aimed specifically at the host realities. Through structured interviews, we intend to deepen the role of local communities in tourism management and in the development of sustainable practices. During Monday's meeting we will discuss openly to gather information, ideas and suggestions aimed at making the BAG project grow, making tools and guidelines increasingly responsive to the real needs of the territory.
