Apoio a comunidades e causas
Apoiamos pequenos empresários e projetos no destino para que as comunidades locais possam crescer. Os operadores turísticos, os restaurantes e os fornecedores de transportes muitas vezes são independentes e geridos por famílias.
Cuidado com o nosso ambiente
As nossas experiências são concebidas para minimizar seu impacto ambiental, principalmente em regiões de grande biodiversidade. Elas podem incluir transportes ecológicos, como barcos elétricos, e rotas concebidas para reduzir a perturbação da flora e da fauna. Além disso, podem excluir o uso de plásticos descartáveis.
O que é o GSTC?
O Global Sustainable Tourism Council® (GSTC - Conselho Global de Turismo Sustentável) estabelece e gerencia padrões mundiais de viagens e turismo sustentáveis, conhecidos como “Critérios GSTC”. Trata-se de uma organização independente e sem fins lucrativos, cujo objetivo é alcançar as melhores práticas relacionadas ao turismo sustentável.
Como o nosso processo funciona?
Cada experiência é avaliada em até 11 áreas, que vão desde “meio ambiente” até “direitos humanos”. O objetivo é maximizar os benefícios e minimizar os impactos negativos no destino, de acordo com as restrições locais. Todas as atividades e operadores turísticos, restaurantes, locais, guias e fornecedores de transporte incluídos na experiência são avaliados. Esse processo é o primeiro do tipo a ser aplicado a experiências em escala mundial e foi aprovado pelo Conselho Global de Turismo Sustentável (GSTC).
Ponto de partida
A nossa avaliação é baseada nos critérios do GSTC para os operadores turísticos e nos seus pilares. Seção A: Demonstrar uma gestão sustentável eficaz Seção B: Maximizar os benefícios sociais e econômicos para a comunidade local e minimizar os impactos negativos Seção C: Maximizar os benefícios para o patrimônio cultural e minimizar os impactos negativos Seção D: Maximizar os benefícios para o meio ambiente e minimizar os impactos negativos
Nosso sistema
Utilizamos os critérios do GSTC para criar um processo de avaliação relativamente a 11 áreas: Jurídico e compliance, Recursos Humanos, Comunicação, Saúde e segurança, Caridade e doações, Meio ambiente, Produtos e serviços, Operações, Bem-estar animal, Direitos humanos e Proteção infantil.
Candidatura
Todos os elementos de uma experiência, desde a alimentação aos fornecedores de transporte e às atividades, têm de preencher um questionário que abrange as 11 áreas mencionadas anteriormente. A experiência é então avaliada em relação aos seus elementos individuais e como um todo. Se cumprir os requisitos necessários, ela será classificada como “Green & Fair”.
Auditoria
O nosso sistema e o nosso processo de gestão de sustentabilidade foram auditados pelo órgão independente Control Union. Ele também realiza avaliações anuais nos destinos para monitorar a conformidade contínua.
“A TUI Musement não só promove a sustentabilidade em suas atividades e em toda a sua rede de distribuição de experiências ao mesmo tempo em que continua monitorando-as e avaliando-as, mas também eleva o patamar para garantir uma abordagem mais sustentável em todo o setor.”
Randy Durband, Diretor Executivo do GSTC
