Planeterra is a leading non-profit organization that is dedicated to transforming travel into a powerful force for positive impact. With 20 years of experience in the field, Planeterra aims to ensure that local businesses and communities benefit from the $8 trillion global tourism industry. Many communities around the world do not receive any economic benefits from tourism, which is where Planeterra steps in.

Their work focuses on supporting and uplifting community tourism initiatives, creating economic opportunities, protecting natural and cultural heritage, and celebrating local cultures through travel. Planeterra's approach is three-fold: empower, support, and connect. They empower community tourism enterprises led by women, youth, Indigenous and rural communities, ensuring ongoing benefits for these groups.

Through their Global Community Tourism Network, they provide essential training and support, enabling these enterprises to thrive and invest in their economies, education, healthcare, and the environment. Lastly, Planeterra creates a platform for peer-to-peer support among community tourism enterprises while advocating for more travelers, travel companies, and destinations to prioritize community tourism. Join Planeterra in their mission to make a lasting impact through travel.
