The book is published in association with Tourism Concern which works with communities in destination countries to reduce social and environmental problems connected to tourism and with the out-going tourism industry in the UK to find ways of improving tourism – so that local benefits are increased. This book is the product of over 15 years of research into what makes a holiday ethical.

“As ever, Tourism Concern is at the forefront of efforts to ensure that the benefits of tourism are shared much more equitably” Jonathon Porritt, Co-Founder of Forum for the Future.
