This is your chance to design the Awards Logo in support of the Caribbean Tourism Organization’s (CTO) Work Programme, and is an opportunity to win bragging rights in an initiative that celebrates sustainability champions in tourism – the most important industry in our region.
The Awards recognize individuals, groups, organizations or companies in any CTO Member Country which have developed responsible and unique tourism products, or are engaged in implementing tourism-related initiatives which embrace sustainability principles and core values.
Without question, recognized initiatives also help to enhance national tourism product offerings and advance sustainable and responsible tourism in the Caribbean, CTO points out.
