Ethical Tourism in Euskadi
What is the Code of Ethics?
The Euskadi Tourism Code of Ethics establishes several key principles so that all tourism operators in Euskadi incorporate accountability and sustainability into their daily practices with respect and contribution to mutual understanding as basic principles.
This Code is an adaptation of the Global Code of Ethics for Tourism based on the characteristics of our culture and identity and it aims to turn our values into a resource in and of themselves to understand and competitively manage the development of tourism in our region.
