As a network of hospitality training centres, one of ASSET-H&C’s objectives is to promote a sustainable hospitality and tourism. The goal is to have a positive impact on the society, environment and economy of the countries members are working in. To achieve this goal, ASSET-H&C launched the Ecospitality Initiative, which aims at shaping the next generations of responsible tourism professionals by creating conducive environment – eco-schools – for the capacity building of young people – eco-students. The guide gathers good practices and practical recommendations regarding energy and water consumption, waste and pollution and mitigation and adaptation. It also contains Hospitality Insights, which are case studies from hospitality actors in the Southeast Asian region, and external links to go further in finding solutions. It aims at helping all interested tourism stakeholders increase their environmental sustainability.
