Why is the conservation of tourism destinations important to your organization?
One of our main values at Freely is; 'Giving back to people, places, and the planet'. This is something that lives and breathes very strongly within our organization, and we are working hard to back this up in all ways possible. We want people to enhance their lives with travel and exploring the world, but to do it in the most sustainable way. As a travel (insurance) organization to be able to support the conservation of tourism is an absolute no-brainer.
WeTravel
WeTravel, the booking and payments platform powering multi-day travel, has built its platform with a mission to empower any travel business through its technological solutions. With thousands of group and travel businesses—who interact with 500,000 travelers, annually—using its platform, the business believes it has an unparalleled ability to positively impact how travel businesses operate, including being a champion, through its platform, in helping travel businesses protect and preserve people and the planet.

JourneyWoman
JourneyWoman is the original travel publication for solo women, established in 1994. They also provide a Women’s Travel Directory, which lists women-friendly tours, retreats, guides, and accommodations.
Why is the conservation of tourism destinations important to your organization?
Women - and women over 50 - are the primary decision-makers in travel and can help influence good behaviors in others. Our editorial focuses on how women can travel sustainably, and we want to encourage women’s tour operators to embrace sustainability in their business practices.

Adventures in Good Company creates experiences of a lifetime for women seeking new adventures. Their small group getaways encourage women of all ages and life stages to (re)connect with their adventurous selves, other women and cultures, and the natural world. AGC vacations are for women who love being active, regardless of whether you're a first-time traveler or a lifelong adventuress. They handle the logistics so you can relax, have fun, and fully experience some of the world's most breathtaking places.
Why is the conservation of tourism destinations important to your organization?
AGC recognizes that any form of adventure travel is inextricably linked to impacting the places and people that are visited, but we stand to believe that travel can be a force for good, both in introducing our participants to new cultures and new beliefs and in providing economic benefit to the places we visit. That's why we strive to be a leader in sustainable travel. Our goal is to have a positive impact on the environment and cultures of the places we visit and to minimize the adverse impacts of travel.
Our commitment to sustainable travel follows three guiding principles: environmentally friendly practices like minimizing the use of plastic; protecting natural and cultural heritage; supporting local communities.
Adventures in Good Company has the opportunity to make a greater impact on conservation efforts through ATCF at 100% of our membership dues go directly toward funding conservation initiatives.

Explorer X is a Seattle-based travel design company dedicated to helping people Travel Better and Live Better.
Why is the conservation of tourism destinations important to your organization?
Working to conserve the culture, history, and environment/natural resources of tourism destinations not only protects/empowers the local community but also increases the likelihood that future generations of travelers will be able to visit, share with, and learn from these destinations and the people there as well.
