On the 4th of May, Etifor participated to the webinar “Towards Regenerative Approaches in Successful Tourism & Forestry Practices<\/a>“. <\/strong>The aim of this event was to give an idea of what a regenerative approach is, its theory and principles. At the same time, the event explained what a regenerative approach can look like when applied in tourism and forestry, presenting also practical case studies and opportunities.<\/span><\/p>\n

Regeneration is a holistic, multidisciplinary and context-specific approach<\/strong>\u00a0that can therefore look different depending on the scale, location and actors involved in the project. Nature based solutions (NBS) adopting regenerative approaches that embed care and awareness, can greatly benefit the climate, nature, and people through long-lasting change, both at ecosystem and community levels.<\/p>\n

The webinar was hosted by the Connecting Nature Enterprise Platform (CNEP)<\/a>, highlighting the platforms\u2019 community ambassadors and members work in regenerative tourism and forestry.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>

During the webinar, Alessia Fiorentino, Junior Tourism Officer at Etifor, gave an overview of what regenerative tourism and forestry entails:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

1. Regeneration is a mindset, process and practice<\/strong> by which the conditions for all life to thrive are created. It differs from sustainability, as regeneration focuses on improving, restoring and enhancing ecosystems, communities and resources. The concept of sustainability is built on the principles of maintaining and preserving the current state of ecosystems. In this sense, regeneration represents the next step, building onto the fundamentals of sustainability and ultimately asking for a mindset shift in our worldview to include nature as a fundamental stakeholder in all our decisions.<\/span><\/p>\n
