Collaborating with organisations to advance the UN Sustainable Development Goals
Join us for a fantastic panel event bringing together representatives from academia, business, the UN World Tourism Organisation and Just a Drop – an NGO that has helped deliver sustainable water solutions to over 1.9 million people in 32 countries – to discuss how organisations can work together to progress sustainable tourism and delivery of the sustainable development goals. This is a fantastic opportunity to learn more and put your questions to sector leaders.

Hear more about the great opportunity for 20 graduate students to take part in the 2022/23 easyJet holidays Sustainable Tourism Programme working on projects focusing on two complementary areas: Local Impact and Strategic Impact. Local: how can we address issues in specific Mediterranean tourism destinations from a bottom-up perspective? Strategic: how can we work with governments and the United Nations to shape industry-wide progress from a top-down perspective?

The panel will be followed by a drinks reception and opportunity to network.
