At the Westmont Institute, our research explores tourism as a powerful force operating across economic, social, and ecological systems—capable of both driving and addressing global challenges. While tourism has contributed to climate change, ecological degradation, and cultural erosion, the industry's growing shift toward sustainability marks an important step forward. Yet, many of these efforts remain surface-level. Our work goes further, embracing regenerative tourism—a transformative approach that not only minimizes harm but actively restores local ecosystems, cultures, and communities.
