SUSTAINABLE TOURISM
|
We at Tailor
Made Peru firmly
believe in the importance of Sustainable Tourism. We
want to contribute to raising the standard of living of
the local communities in the areas where we work and
to improve the local environmental conservation. Ever
since we started we have involved the local communities
and worked with them as suppliers of goods and services
and we are working hard to minimize our ecological footprints
and instead contribute to creating a more sustainable
society.
Here is our Sustainable Tourism
Policy:
- We
donate 1% of our profit to local development projects
and we challenge all our competitors and partners in
the industry to do the same.
- We
have set up a goal that by the end of 2010 Tailor
Made Peru will be a carbon dioxide neutral company. Again, we
hope that this is something that more companies will
adopt in the future.
- We
always choose locally run companies to provide us with
goods and services if possible. If we have two equal
options we will always choose the local company in favor of
the foreign one. By doing this we hope to contribute
to a higher standard of living for these people.
- We
have a zero litter policy.
- We
promote responsible use of tourist attractions and the
surrounding natural resources to avoid the destruction
of the environment and to avoid doing harm to local
communities and their lifestyle.
- We
continuously train our staff in the principles and practices
of sustainable tourism.
- We
aim to improve the environmental conservation in the
areas where we work.
- We
integrate environmental considerations into all our
strategic decisions.
This being said, we also expect
certain things from you as our client. We expect you
to respect the local communities that you visit and
their way of life and that you do not litter or in any
other way do harm to the local environment.
