The GOOD Awaits Podcast is hosted by the Centre for GOOD Travel's Debbie Clarke, Director of Regenerative Development, and Josie Major, Director of Regenerative Programmes.
Through thought-provoking, knowledgeable and inspiring conversations with pioneers and practitioners of regenerative tourism, they are exploring a new way forward for our sector.
Regenerative tourism goes beyond sustainable tourism and focuses on ensuring communities and places are improved through tourism. It looks at communities as living systems, of which tourism businesses are a part, and asks how tourism can contribute to thriving communities. It calls for a mindset shift, a new way of approaching tourism and calls for a new way of thinking.
The GOOD Awaits Podcast continues these conversations and more, serving as a platform of collective discovery.
