The full-day conference will explore topics including the challenges around overtourism, the opportunities shaping sustainable travel and how travel can help solve biodiversity loss.  

Ahead of the conference, moderator Susan Deer – Abta’s director of industry relations – highlighted the growing "media attention" on issues such as animal welfare and overtourism, which she said had the potential to place additional pressure on businesses.

“What this should do is be a reminder of the need to have a sustainability framework which works for your business, and to keep that in focus across all decision making and operations," said Deer.
