Embrace sustainability to protect our natural assets and drive eco-conscious regional visitation with expert trainer Sarah Rhodes.
Helping tourism businesses reduce costs, strengthen operations and stay competitive.
Running a tourism business has never been more demanding. Rising operating costs, changing visitor expectations, workforce challenges and increasing sustainability expectations can all feel like one more thing to manage.
This free industry program has been designed specifically for tourism operators across the Murray region. Rather than adding to your workload, each session focuses on practical ideas you can apply in your own business, helping you reduce costs, improve efficiency, strengthen your visitor experience and build long-term resilience.
Whether you're just getting started or already making progress, you'll leave each session with practical actions you can implement straight away.
Delivered by sustainable tourism specialist Sarah Rhodes, Founder of Plastic Free Southeast Asia, who has worked with tourism businesses across Australia and Southeast Asia to turn sustainability into practical business outcomes.
