Taking action
As Mr Zurab Pololikashvili, Secretary-General of the World Tourism Organization stated,
“This crisis gives us the opportunity to rethink how tourism industry should be and its contribution to people and the planet; the opportunity that, by rebuilding it, the sector become more sustainable, inclusive and resilient”.
We’re working to help all industry sectors transform to reach net zero by 2050, balanced with other sustainability goals and tailored to regional contexts.
We are working with clients to lead a wave of innovation and economic growth that safeguards our planet and advances sustainability.
What is Sustainability?
Sustainability means meeting our own needs without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. In addition to natural resources, we also need social and economic resources.
“Sustainability is not just environmentalism. It is also related to social equity and economic development”.
Sustainability, as a movement, has roots in social justice, conservationism, internationalism.

Radisson SVP Inge Huijbrechts has called on Middle East hotel owners to do more on sustainability. The sustainability chief for more than 1,600 hotels in development and operation spoke to Hotelier Middle East about what the region must do to move forward.
In the same line Hector De Castro, CEO at DE CASTRO GROUP, stated in a 2021 conference that
“there’s a misconception that building sustainably costs more, and that is not true”.
