Helping to reduce poverty by supporting economic development in agricultural and tourist areas.
Sustainable Development
The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are a set of 17 global goals set by the United Nations to guide national and international action towards a more sustainable future by 2030. For a programme like AgroTour International, which sits at the intersection of agriculture and international tourism, several SDGs are relevant. Here are some of the goals connected to our programme:
Supporting food security by promoting sustainable farming practices and encouraging dietary diversity.
Advancing tourism and agriculture, creating decent jobs and contributing to economic growth, particularly in rural areas.
Promoting environmentally friendly farming and tourism practices and encouraging responsible consumption.
Adopting sustainable farming practices and promoting environmentally responsible tourism, helping to mitigate climate change.
Encouraging the sustainable management of agricultural and tourist land to protect biodiversity and ecosystems.
Encouraging collaboration between agricultural and tourism stakeholders, governments, NGOs and other partners to help achieve the programme goals.
