Europamundo Vacations works in the most diverse areas in general, in order to raise awareness so that our environmental print is as small as possible in the destinations we visit and, if our prints are noticeable, to use them to promote coexistence and understanding between different cultures and to develop a sustainable and responsible tourism.

In April 2011 we created the Europamundo Foundation, being one of the 16 international partners that the World Tourism organization has in its ST-EP program, to alleviate poverty through sustainable tourism. In the last ten years, eighty projects have been carried out. We carry out 153 projects in thirty countries, collaborating with fifty different NGOs, with a total of 260 000 direct beneficiaries.

STRATEGIC ALLIANCES

WORLD TOURISM ORGANIZATION (UNWTO)

Europamundo, since October 2011, has been an affiliated member of the WORLD TOURISM ORGANIZATION (an organization dependent on the United Nations).

We hope, through this affiliation, to make our modest contribution to the UNWTO's goals of promoting more ethical, responsible, and wealth generator tourism in our world.

Europamundo is part of the United Nations Global Code of Ethics for Tourism signed before the Secretary-General of the UNWTO, Taleb Rifai in FITUR in 2016.

We have also developed our own ethical code which can be found at:

ST-EP PROGRAM PARTNERS OF THE UNWTO

The Europamundo Foundation has participated as a partner in the ST-EP (Sustainable Tourism Eliminating Poverty) program and in its Poverty Alleviation through Tourism projects since 2012.

El apoyo adicional de Gobiernos, agencias de desarrollo y otras organizaciones públicas y privadas permite a la OMT continuar expandiendo la iniciativa ST-EP y desarrollar el turismo a beneficio de los más desfavorecidos.Additional support from governments, development agencies and other public and private organizations allows the UNWTO to continue to expand the ST-EP initiative and develop tourism for the benefit of the most disadvantaged.

GLOBAL COMPACT

Europamundo Vacations has been a member of the United Nations Global Compact since 2014, which is an international and voluntary ethical commitment initiative aimed at all companies, in all countries. The main goal is to the companies to implement, as an integral part of their operations and strategies, the ten Principles of Conduct and Action of the Compact on the maters of Human Rights, Labour Standards, Care for the Environment and the Fight against Corruption.

The Global Compact also advises entities to make their progress report, or sustainability report, as another step in the implementation of their Corporate Social Responsibility policies.
