29 June, 2022

TTG (Travel Trade Gazette), one of the UK’s leading travel trade publications, has organised TTG Fairer Travel Week from 4-8 July. The programme, in an online and in-person hybrid format, includes a range of seminars and events aimed at UK travel agents and travel industry representatives. Sessions will address the state of the industry with a focus on sustainability and inclusion.

The week’s programme will start with an informal event aimed at the LGBTIQ+ community, in line with the media outlet’s ever-strong integration and anti-discrimination policy. The line-up of events will also include an educational and training session for travel agents, where they’ll have the opportunity to speak directly to destination and tour operator representatives in attendance at the event.

The following days will focus on sustainability and integration, with a format based on presentations by prominent British companies and associations relevant to the issues, as well as a selection of workshops. The Spanish Tourism Office in London (Turespaña) is the main sponsor of this major event.

The Director of the Spanish Tourist Office in London, Manuel Butler, will introduce the sessions, which will look at the progress of the Spanish tourism sector in terms of sustainability and social and economic inclusion. Also participating will be the Spanish company Artiem, the first hotel chain in Europe and the third in the world to be certified B Corp for its commitment to social and economic sustainability, governance and respect for the environment.
