FOC recognises that responsible tourism can bring benefits to wildlife conservation and the local communities who share the natural habitat. On the other hand ill-considered actions can be highly detrimental.
Our Patron HRH The Prince of Wales said:
| "I believe all those with a long-term stake in their investments and the future of tourism, must each play a part in a bold drive to guarantee a more sustainable future for the way in which we spend our ever increasing leisure time. Customers, employees, governments and local communities will surely reward those who safeguard rather than endanger the environment, and who preserve rather than despoil our natural treasures for the benefit of future
generations". |
We work in partnership with the travel and tourism industry to promote sustainable / responsible tourism and invite individual companies to support us. In the last 18 months some 40 travel related companies - tour operators, travel agents, hotels, insurance companies and airlines have helped us. A much larger number distribute our Traveller's
