Regenerating Tourism In Sri Lanka - Part 2

Climate Friendly Travel

30-07-2023 • 30 mins

Today I’m delighted to be joined once more by Chalana Perera who is the Founder of RETRACE Hospitality in Sri Lanka.

In this second episode, I talk to Chalana about the concept of capacity in tourism destinations. Do we know how many tourists we can safely welcome before there is a negative impact on the host community, the environment and the traveller experience.  We also discuss poverty, it’s role in climate resilience and how this links with the wider climate change crisis.

Big issues and thought provoking discussions…

My thanks again to Chalana for sharing his insights with us today and if you’d like to learn more about RETRACE Hospitality and the work they are doing in Sri Lanka then please do visit https://www.retracehospitality.com

And you can join Chalana, RETRACE Hospitality and hundreds more like-minded people and organisations by joining Climate Friendly Travel and indeed become an ambassador by signing up to join The SUNx Program at climatefriendly.travel or email us at info@thesunprogram.com
