The Reset Tourism Webinar Series: Tourism is at a crossroads. This webinar series focuses one the three things the tourism industry must focus on in order to move past business as usual and toward a more resilient, regenerative, equitable, and sustainable tourism economy.

​

Destination Stewardship and Stakeholder Engagement: The first in the series, the Center for Responsible Travel (CREST) and the Destination Stewardship Center (DSC) discuss innovative forms of governance and collaboration that will enable a more holistic approach to tourism management and development, and bring new skills, resources, and levers for change, to develop resiliency, community contentment, and each destination’s unique intrinsic appeal.
