Responsible travel in the age of COVID-19

As travellers, we have a responsibility to do no harm to the health of our communities at home and those that we visit. In essence, we should have a positive impact on the environment, society and economy and otherwise aim to ‘leave no trace’

Our world is more interconnected than ever before and – as COVID-19 has shown – our health and well-being are highly interdependent. Travellers play a major role in the spread of infectious diseases  and now more than ever, we need to be proactive about protecting our health and the health of others.  Especially at this time, when many healthcare systems continue to be overwhelmed in their response to COVID-19, acting responsibly and proactively to prevent infections ensures local health resources can be reserved.

  2. Learn about health risks relevant to your destination and how to prevent them.
  3. Choose consciously and invest directly into the local economy. Choose travel and tourism companies that can demonstrate their commitment to sustainable practices and the health of the local community.
  4. Learn about the local cultures at your destination to ensure you are being sensitive to their norms and practices.
  5. Do not travel if you are sick. Visit a healthcare professional and take the necessary precautions to protect others by staying home.
