The Responsible Tourism Partnership (RTP) is dedicated to promoting sustainable tourism practices that benefit communities and preserve destinations worldwide. Originating from the Cape Town Declaration, RTP champions accountability, resilience, and transparency in tourism, striving to create lasting positive change within the industry.

RTP focuses on a broad agenda encompassing economic, social, and environmental responsibility, offering a wealth of resources to guide both producers and consumers. Through initiatives like the Responsible Tourism Awards, RTP recognizes exemplary practices that elevate tourism standards while combating challenges such as overtourism.

The partnership acts as a platform for collaboration and knowledge sharing among industry leaders, with annual conferences held globally. Their commitment extends towards tackling pressing issues like climate change and promoting cultural diversity, as reflected in their six award categories for the Global Responsible Tourism Awards. RTP invites individuals and organizations to join them in their mission to foster meaningful tourism that supports local communities and enhances the travel experience for all.
