Tearfund is campaigning for tourism to bring a greater contribution towards development, particularly in developing countries where our partners work. We have been focusing on tour operators and on tourists – helping both parties to take their responsibility more seriously.

During 2002 Tearfund’s Tourism campaign is focussing on The Right to Know. Information on the impact of our holidays should be available, and tour operators have a responsibility to provide us with this information. Tearfund wants to see tour operators reporting on their work so that they can learn and improve and so that consumers can make informed choices and be responsible tourists.
