On 20 October we invited LREF members to a webinar where we looked back on the last two years of the PPSF project and what we can learn from this experience. In a webinar designed for the LRE Foundation network, we took a look at how the results and tools of the project can support museums, heritage sites and organisations working on the history of World War II in implementing sustainable practices at their sites, strengthening the overall resilience and of the sector.
LRE Foundation was joined by our colleagues and project partners from Mascontour, a sustainable tourism consultancy based in Berlin, and Juno Beach Centre, France. We presented an outline of the project, with highlights from the results of the market and needs analysis done at the beginning of the project. We also examined some interesting Case Studies, as well as explaining the 10 key recommendations for the sector, an outcome of the project, and the co-creation process of PPSF sustainable practices. We also spotlighted the resources available, produced during the project, which can all be found here.
Importantly, the webinar was the occasion to launch a key output of the project, the Sustainable Tourism Practices Handbook, and discuss how to apply it in varying contexts. Take a look for yourself!
