Event description

If you're a King Island tourism business, you’re invited to a workshop on the whywhat and how of sustainable, regenerative and positive impact tourism, with a specific focus on reducing carbon emissions in your businesses. 

The workshop will be highly inspiring yet deeply practical, and most importantly - grounded in the practical realities of running a tourism business here in Tassie.

We know that finding the time and dollars to make change in your business is hard – the challenge of finding and keeping staff, the cost of doing business, maintaining a quality visitor experience and remaining profitable are all day-to-day realities, let alone where to start in reducing emissions within your business.

This workshop is here to help you cut through the noise and support you with highly practical immediate and short-term as well as longer-term changes in your business to make a positive impact, reduce your business’s carbon emissions and cut costs at the same time.

Key learnings from the practical workshop will include:

- Case studies of how tourism businesses around Tasmania, and also Australia are tackling emissions reduction.

- Where and how carbon emissions can be reduced, even when juggling the challenge of staffing, time and business cost pressures.

- Where and how emissions reduction can lead to more meaningful and locally connected visitor experiences.

- How to communicate your positive impact and decarbonisation journey authentically and transparently, so you maintain visitor trust in an often un-trusted space. 

- How reducing emissions can lead to wider positive benefits, such as local community group and business partnerships, as well as new market opportunities.

- This workshop will allow you the time to work on your business in a meaningful way to help create a more low-carbon, positive, profitable, and also resilient future for your business.

    • Tourism businesses of all sizes.
    • Feel free to bring multiple members of your team.
