Project 300 will aim to uplift 300 communities around the world by 2030 by including community tourism enterprises into G Adventures’ tours.

 

Speaking during the summit in Peru, dubbed GX, Planeterra president Jamie Sweeting described Project 300 as “the next chapter” for the charity, with its strategy based on previously successful initiatives.

 

These include “50 in 5” – which was launched in 2015 and focused on building 50 new social enterprises into G Adventures’ programmes in five years – and Project 100, which took the total number to 100.
