For policymakers
Is your organization, municipality, region, or country exploring ways to implement Tourism Revenue Tools (TRTs), like accommodation fees, visitor levies, or other funding models? The NPA-funded RETURN project is benchmarking diverse TRT approaches from across the world to find TRT models that have been successfully implemented. We invite you to join our initiative to expand knowledge, share experiences, and strengthen the impact of sustainable tourism strategies.
Empowering Policymakers to Shape Sustainable Tourism Futures
The RETURN project recognizes the crucial role of policymakers and decision-makers in advancing sustainable tourism. As tourism grows, so does the need for effective strategies that ensure visitors contribute to the resilience and regeneration of the destinations they visit. Tourism revenue transfers offer a way to channel financial support from tourists to host communities, strengthening local economies, environmental conservation, and climate adaptation efforts. The RETURN project provides key insights into how different models can be implemented within various regulatory frameworks, helping decision-makers shape policies that create lasting benefits for both communities and the environment.
