OTIE promotes water management training

• A free 4-hour online training course aims to equip tourism businesses with skills and knowledge on sustainability and responsible business practices.

The Observatory On Tourism In The European Islands, in the framework of the I-STARS project, launches a new online course to improve sustainable water practices for the tourism industry. Discover the environmental and economic benefits of water conservation, understand industry standards, and develop practical skills to implement water management strategies in your business.
I-STARS is aware that training in water management is essential for small and medium-sized tourism businesses to mitigate water scarcity risks, conserve resources, and maintain sustainable operations. Also, equipping staff with water management skills empowers tourism SMEs to optimize efficiency, reduce costs, and contribute positively to local ecosystems and communities.
