What is a Sustainable Place?
Sustainable Places are communities in towns, cities, regions and even countries that we feel are working hard and making great strides in their journey to be more sustainable. No destination has achieved perfection, because sustainability is a journey for all of us, but here we share those places that have embraced sustainability for both the local people and the visitor.

The protection and amplification of culture and heritage may be a key focus. The commitment to sustainability may extend to the culinary scene, with restaurants and cafes focusing on locally sourced ingredients.
Our Sustainable Places offer more than just a travel guide, providing a window into places where their achievements are celebrated and where responsible tourism and environmental conservation go hand in hand.
