Project 4 is designed to establish a provincial network across BC, enhancing the management of climate resiliency and sustainability within community destinations and the broader tourism industry. The program offers comprehensive learning opportunities through workshops, discussions, and other engaging formats, providing communities with essential knowledge and tools. It emphasizes peer-to-peer engagement and the sharing of successes and learnings to promote collaborative growth. Additionally, Project 4 facilitates connections to available resources, programs, and initiatives that support sustainable business practices and encourage community engagement.
This initiative seeks to advance the sustainable development of BC’s tourism industry by offering educational opportunities and facilitating peer connections and discussions. It equips communities with the capabilities to adopt and implement sustainable tourism practices, support partners and local businesses in responding to climate emergencies and preparedness, and reducing the impacts of extreme weather events and long-term climate impacts.
Connect with a growing destination stewardship network of communities striving to be leaders in climate action and resiliency. Participate in a range of learning and capacity building opportunities designed to help you lead your partners and local businesses in climate emergency preparedness and response, sustainability initiatives, and other climate resiliency areas. Engage with other communities to share your accomplishments, initiatives, and experiences. Learn from the successes of others across the province to solve sustainability and climate related challenges in your own community.
♻ Eligible destination stewardship network participants are encouraged to stay tuned for future updates as new content and learning opportunities become available.
The BCTCRI and its representative projects are developed and delivered in collaboration with partner organizations, including the six Regional Destination Management Organizations (RDMOs), Indigenous Tourism BC, and the BC Ministry of Tourism, Arts, Culture and Sport working together to meet the goals of this initiative.
