"The World Travel & Tourism Council (WTTC) Tourism for Tomorrow Awards are unique in that they highlight best practices that have been verified by independent third parties. This level of quality assurance is why I've been actively involved as a judge for the last four years. I also think the Awards have helped to raise awareness of sustainable Travel &Tourism and to catalyse the green movement within the industry given the fact that they're presented at the Global Travel & Tourism Summit, which is one of the highest profile tourism-related events."
