&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 12pt;"&gt;Within the framework of the EU&amp;rsquo;s Erasmus Knowledge Alliance programme, the European-wide Ecotrans Network for Sustainable Tourism Development has teamed up with leading universities (Algarve, Eberswalde, Sorbonne and Vienna) and businesses with core ICT and tourism interests (Eau de Web and Forum AndersReisen)&amp;nbsp; to create&amp;nbsp; an innovative European wide collaborative online learning delivery system for Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) to &amp;nbsp;offer quality tourism sustainability training to destination administrators, SMEs and workforce individuals linked&amp;nbsp; to tourism activity in Europe&amp;rsquo;s protected areas.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 12pt;"&gt;&lt;a href="/triangle" target="_new" title="TRIANGLE Website"&gt;TRIANGLE (2016-2019)&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 12pt;"&gt;The purpose of this project is to strengthen the cooperation between organization, institutions and forest services through the diversification of activities in ecotourism routes, transfer of concepts, experiences, skills and EU Applications with adapted learning and teaching methods.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 12pt;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="/who-who/civil-society-ngos/eco-act-project/"&gt;ECOACT (2016-2018)&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 12pt;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The Biosphere Destinations Initiative &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 12pt;"&gt;This project was initiated at the ST+20conference in Vitoria Gasteiz 2015 by UNESCO MAB and ECOTRANS in collaboration with La Palma BR and Bliesgau BR. The initiative is for developing and raising the economic, social and environmental benefits for Biosphere Reserves world wide through appropriate tools (e.g. a strong sustainable tourism brand), using the SDG 2030 and the MaB Lima Action Plan 2025 as guidance. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 12pt;"&gt;&lt;a href="/who-who/civil-society-ngos/biosphere-destinations-initiative"&gt;Biosphere Destinations Initiative (2016 ongoing)&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 12pt;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;European Tourism Labelling&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 12pt;"&gt;This study focusses on the current situation in the European Union regarding quality and sustainability labelling in tourism. There is concern that the existing volume and variety of labels has become a barrier to consumer choice, which in consequence may lead to lost opportunities to increase the competitiveness of the European tourism industry. The study analyses the possibility of the introduction of an EU standard(s) for tourism services through the initiation of a harmonised EU certification system and the potential for the establishment of a single European tourism label.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 12pt;"&gt;The project used the results of the SECTEUR project (2015-2016) on the Climate Change information needs of 7 different economic sectors, including Tourism. The 13 consortium members developed apps for historic and hort to long term prognostic information to the European tourism sector. See &lt;a href="/News/2019/2/copernicus-announces-new-climate-information-service-tailored-to-the-european"&gt;ITB 2019: Copernicus announces new climate information service tailored to the European tourism industry&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 12pt;"&gt;Travel Green Planet&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 12pt;"&gt;The Travel Green Planet collaboration initiative 2020-2030 was presented at the GSTC conference on the Azores in December 2019. The initiative shall bring together international and national organisations and networks for boosting sustainable tourism in destinations with protected areas and raise the market share of environmentallly and sustainably certified tourism from 1% to 10% world wide - and 100% in protected areas.&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 12pt;"&gt;See &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 12pt;"&gt;&lt;a href="/News/2019/12/travel-green-planet-initiative-at-gstc-conference" title=" Azores, 4th December 2019 
  Is 1% of green certified tourism worldwide enough?  
 At least this means a bit less energy and water consumption, less food and plastic waste, less carbon emissions, better working conditions and more local income generated by environmental and sustainably certified tourism businesses, destinations and tour operators worldwide. This is good, but 10% and more until 2030 would be better and would be needed to make the tourism sector a real driver for sustainable development, especially for the SDGs 8, 12, 13, 14 and 15! 
 To achieve this ECOTRANS together with the TRIANGLE Knowledge Alliance in Europe presented the Travel Green Planet collaboration initiative at the International GSTC Conference 4th - 7th December 2019 on the Azores. Altogether national and international initiatives and networks should join their forces, concentrate on their strengths and create synergies for speeding up in mainstreaming responsible and sustainable tourism.
