Visible participation
Recognition you can display, from a window sticker in year one to a trophy that marks a full year of participation.

Recognition
Recognition your guests can see.
Your recognition is a symbol of participation in humane tourism. It is not a certification. It arrives in two stages.
Year one
Window sticker
Sent when your partnership begins, so you have something to display right away at the front desk, entrance, or window.
After one year
Trophy
Once you complete twelve months as a Tourism Partner, you receive a trophy at your level — Bronze, Silver, or Gold — recognizing a full year of participation.
Branded clothing and accessories carrying the partner badge are available across the program, for staff and partner use.
Founding Leadership Recognition

Founding partnerships are arranged individually. Start with a conversation with Darci Galati to explore what a founding role could look like for your organization.
