Sustainable Tourism
Importance of Sustainable Tourism
As organizations in the tourism industry, Ontario’s Southwest believes we have a responsibility to educate and support stakeholders to collectively work together in becoming more sustainable. As we participate in initiatives, they will be added to this webpage so that everyone can see what steps are being taken, since we think transparency is essential to our sustainability journey. We will also share education resources to support others in their own sustainability journey.
Learn about the initiatives that Ontario’s Southwest is participating in to make the region of Southwestern Ontario a more sustainable tourism destination.
