Willemstad, September 30, 2020 – As the entire world is promoting prosperity while tackling climate change and environmental protection, the Curaçao Hospitality and Tourism Association (CHATA) is launching the Sustainable Development Survey. The goal of this survey is to measure the awareness, proactiveness and prioritization in regard to environmental sustainability for organizations in the tourism industry and beyond. The results of the survey should give an indication of how environmental sustainability is practiced within organizations on our island.
Specifically, the survey results will help determine to what extent sustainability is prioritized and what the bottlenecks are when it comes to adopting sustainable solutions. The results will eventually serve as a reference for the Task Force in its efforts to make Curaçao a greener destination. All organizations on the island are encouraged to participate. Please go to https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/SustainabilityTaskForceSurvey to take the survey for your organization.
The initiative came from the CHATA Sustainability Task Force, a group consisting of members and partners who are either directly involved with sustainability or members and partners who have sustainability as part of their organizational activities. The CHATA Sustainability Task Force focuses on creating awareness on sustainable business practices within the hospitality and tourism sector and supporting its members in adopting the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG’s) within their organizations.
Individuals and organizations interested in learning more about the CHATA Sustainability Task Force and its survey are invited to watch the Panel Partnership 4 the Goals session during Curaçao 2030 SDG Action Week on Friday, October 2, 2020 at 2PM. The presentation of the CHATA Sustainability Task Force will be given by Caroline Härtel, CSR Manager at Corendon Mangrove Beach Resort and chair of the CHATA Sustainability Task Force.
