recommendations will be made with respect to existing gaps, and a plan provided for the introduction of the measures necessary to address those gaps. Market research will also be carried out in the United Kingdom and Europe to identify recognised certification schemes, to analyse the value placed on them and to determine how these may be adapted for the Greater Caribbean region. The results of the pilot cases will serve to inform future initiatives towards establishing the Sustainable Tourism Zone and to motivate countries that have already committed destinations for this designation. The United Kingdom enjoys Observer status in the ACS and regularly offers financial support to the organisation’s programmes, which, apart from Sustainable Tourism, also focus on Natural Disasters, Transport and Trade. |
