Montreal gets green tourism accolade
Tourisme Montréal earns major sustainable tourism award
Tourisme Montréal received the Destination Award from the Responsible Travel & Tourism Forum (RTTF) recently in Toronto
The recognition highlights the work accomplished by Tourisme Montréal under the tourism industry’s Green Plan, but also within the organization itself.
All Tourisme Montréal departments take part in integrating environmental responsibility into inhouse management practices and thus earned the RTTF honor through real teamwork.
Thanks to the support of the tourism industry’s Green Committee, Tourisme Montréal raises awareness of, supports, and promotes Montreal tourism businesses that care about sustainable development.
"I am extremely proud of the work accomplished by Tourisme Montréal in terms of sustainable tourism," said Tourisme Montréal CEO Yves Lalumière. "Once again, our organization has demonstrated initiative and leadership in a sector that is key to the future of tourism."
Although initially intended for the eco-friendly conference industry, Tourisme Montréal’s Green Plan gradually developed into a more global action plan seeking to make a larger number of stakeholders more socially, economically, and environmentally accountable. The restaurant, hotel, and festival industries thus play an important role in positioning Montréal as a sustainable tourist destination.
