The Global Destination Sustainability Movement is Born

The platform aims to change how we view travel

Last week, the Global Destination Sustainability Index (GDS-Index) launched the Global Destination Sustainability Movement (GDS-Movement), a platform to promote the regenerative thinking and practices that will support destinations in their sustainable initiatives.

The GDS-Movement has expanded from the GDS-Index roots in the business events industry to a more holistic focus on the nexus between the visitor economy, urban development and a needed evolution of thinking from sustainability to regeneration. It convenes destination leaders and urban change-makers at this difficult time and supports them to drive this community-based change.

The GDS Regeneration model leverages a philosophy and passion for “extreme collaboration” to unlock the collective intelligence and knowledge held within and amongst destinations. This is backed up with an advanced data platform, active partnerships and collective expertise.
