We have developed multi-stakeholder networking approaches to sustainable tourism development for the past three decades, culminating in the development of the Tourism2030.eu Portal and European Tourism Going Green 2030 (ETGG2030) Innovation Training and Implementation system, which will be realised through regional and national tourism sustainability certification clusters linked to the overall European and Global SDG processes. 

Through the Tourism2030.eu portal we offer access to capacity-building programmes, technical and financial assistance for SMEs to engage in environmentally friendly practices and schemes through participation in the ETGG2030 programme.

a. Promotion of the COSME funded Going Green 2030 SME Sustainability Innovation, Training and Implementation System making the European to global to national level link as part of SDG 17 through development of the common use of UNEPs Transforming Tourism Value Chain project and similar UNEP tools and Tourism 2030’s online knowledge base and toolkit to promote SDG 8, 12,13, 14 and 15 through supply chain sustainability certification in Europe. 

b. Support for the Tourism 2030 Travel Green Planet Clustering Initiative at the global level as part of the Agenda 2030 SDG 12 (sustainable consumption and production) for protected areas with reference to the UN Conference on the Parties on Climate Change and Biodiversity. 

c. Cooperation to develop tourism SME and destination guidance on funding mitigation and adaptation measures for climate change and biodiversity in relation to the decade of implementation linking UN to EU and national, regional and local Agenda 2030 initiatives. 

Targets and milestones include the establishment of sustainability certification clusters, sustainability third party verified certification of SMEs and destinations, and establishment of an indicator of nr of SMEs with third party verification in a specific territory. 

We aim to have: 
2023: European level + 6 national sustainable tourism certification clusters, 2% certified accommodation businesses in the European tourism supply chain
2025: EU coverage of national tourism certification clusters, 5% certified accommodation businesses
2030: Global coverage of tourism certification clusters in destinations with protected areas, 10% certified accommodation businesses in Europe
