Students in 6-12, we want to hear from you!
We want to know how operators and tourists are acting on and promoting sustainability. You can help by participating in TIANB’s Sustainability in Tourism Contest, in partnership with Education and Early Childhood Development (EECD).
We want to learn from you: in a project of your choice, introduce us to an operator or a tourist destination in your community. Explore in your project how tourism in New Brunswick supports the Sustainable Development Goals and support NB to be a thriving destination.
We look forward to and value your perspective!
Here’s how it works
In a project medium of your choice (see guidelines), introduce us to an operator or tourist destination in your community and explore how they, (1) support the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals, and (2) help New Brunswick remain a thriving destination.
Your project must explore one (1) question from the provided Question Bank in the guidelines that aligns with the operator or destination, find one gap in the sustainability of the organization or destination, and write a short reflective piece.
Most important of all: use your creativity and imagination – and have fun!
