SOSTENIBILIDAD
Marcando la diferencia...
Queremos que tu viaje con nosotros deje una huella positiva y un impacto duradero en todos los involucrados, desde el personal de limpieza de los hoteles y alojamientos donde te hospedas hasta los conductores de los vehículos de traslado, y todos los demás. Para lograrlo, colaboramos con marcas de safaris africanos excepcionales que lideran el camino en materia de sostenibilidad, contribuyendo directamente a que cada viaje sea significativo.
¿QUÉ ES LA SOSTENIBILIDAD?
PREDICAR CON EL EJEMPLO
La verdadera sostenibilidad no se trata de ser "ecológico" ni de abrir guarderías en aldeas empobrecidas. Se trata de predicar con el ejemplo. Por eso, nos aseguramos de que las empresas turísticas con las que trabajamos compartan nuestro compromiso de mejorar el impacto positivo y los beneficios tangibles que cada viaje puede tener tanto en las comunidades locales como en las zonas naturales.
LAS PERSONAS Y EL PLANETA
Al igual que nosotros, todas estas marcas se esfuerzan por ser sostenibles a través de las acciones que emprenden y los modelos de negocio que han adoptado, comprendiendo que la sostenibilidad tiene tanto que ver con las personas como con el planeta, y adhiriéndose al triple resultado final de empoderar a las personas y proteger el medio ambiente, además de centrarse en las ganancias.
JUSTICIA EN TODAS LAS COSAS
Una empresa de turismo sostenible se centra en el desarrollo de capacidades y la capacitación de sus empleados, ofreciéndoles una remuneración justa y respetando su dignidad. Los invita a participar directamente en la gestión de la empresa, dándoles voz y voto en las decisiones que afectan sus vidas y carreras profesionales.
RESPETO
Respeta los derechos humanos, la cultura y el medio ambiente, proporcionando condiciones y prácticas laborales seguras, promoviendo la igualdad de género, la diversidad y la conservación de la biodiversidad y los recursos naturales. Reduce su impacto en el planeta mediante la filosofía de reducir, reutilizar y reciclar, y muestra empatía con las normas culturales de las comunidades con las que trabaja.

LAS MAMÁS SOLARES DE GREAT PLAINS CONSERVATION
In 2019, Great Plains sponsored nine ‘Solar Mamas’ to leave their villages in Botswana to attend a five-month solar power training programme in India. They returned home with the skills to install and maintain solar home lighting systems, run a business and provide sustainable energy for their communities. The current phase of the project aims to supply equipment for the Solar Mamas to electrify rural households in their remote communities bordering the Okavango Delta. Solar electricity is a safer and more sustainable energy source than paraffin, candles, or firewood and electricity is a natural deterrent to wildlife in this game-dense area. The project also aims to increase community-wide educational and economic activity after dark and advance gender equality by supporting women to become entrepreneurs. The Solar Mamas programme is unique in its ability to address all of these areas of community life with an environmentally sustainable technology at the project’s centre.

Uthando is a unique model of travelling philanthropy underpinned by the values of responsible tourism. Through philanthropic education excursions and experiences, it successfully links the tourism industry to a broad range of innovative, inspiring, and well-managed community development programmes. One of these is Abalimi Bezekhaya. Meaning “Farmers Of The Home” in isiXhosa, this is a non-profit urban farming organisation that provides support to disadvantaged communities in Cape Town, teaching people how to grow and maintain organic vegetable gardens within local communities. This encourages food security while providing support to production gardens for income generation. These centres are also training and demonstration gardens where the community can buy organically grown vegetables for consumption.

FUNDACIÓN TSWALU KALAHARI
Tswalu Kalahari is leading the way through its community programmes and The Tswalu Foundation's research projects.

Tshameka, a preschool established in 2003, provides a stimulating, structured early education in preparation for primary school for children of staff and their extended families. The Kalahari Endangered Ecosystem Project (KEEP) is also having a profound impact on the understanding of the way the environment and wild fauna and flora at Tswalu are responding to climate change. KEEP brings together expertise in botany, zoology, veterinary science, ecology and physiology, drawn from institutions across the world, all working together by sharing data and integrating findings.

Conservation-based tourism is how it's done at Chem Chem in Tanzania.
By choosing to stay at Chem Chem Lodge, Little Chem Chem, or Forest Chem Chem, guests contribute to the protection and preservation of this beautiful environment and its inhabitants. Through the Chem Chem association - a registered non-profit organisation located within the Burunge Wildlife Management Area in northern Tanzania - Chem Chem is making a huge difference, securing and protecting the Kwakuchinja corridor — an important ancient migratory route connecting Tarangire and Lake Manyara national parks. Chem Chem's mission is to work in partnership with key stakeholders to conserve these critical ecosystems while simultaneously empowering local communities.
Protecting the region’s endangered wildlife and working to make a life-changing difference in the lives of the people living in the 10 villages surrounding the corridor is of paramount importance. It is here that Chem Chem is directly fostering sustainable development by building lasting relationships that support conservation, education, and community engagement projects.
