2018 Ethical Destinations Awards
Saturday, January 13, 2018

Awards presented by:

One of the best things mindful travelers can do is spend their tourist dollars in countries that uphold core values like human rights and environmental protection.

Bay Area-based Ethical Traveler (a project of the Earth Island Institute) compiles an annual research report on “The World’s Best Ethical Destinations.” The non-profit honors 10 countries – all in the developing world – that are best protecting their environments and promoting socially-just, sustainable tourism. Please join us to meet the team behind the report, and to mingle with ambassadors and representatives from the award-winning countries. Learn which countries made the 2018 list and why.

Location: the Goldman Theater at the David Brower Center
2150 Allston Way, Berkeley, CA 94704
Time: 6:30 p.m. check-in, 7pm program, 8pm reception
Cost: Free for Ethical Traveler members (must be a member to attend the ceremony; membership is free. If you are not already a member, just sign up at the door, or at https://ethicaltraveler.org/register/ ).
