If you engage in an online news search on African tourism, you might be disappointed with the lack of fresh news you come across. Many portals and news magazines are reporting old information and months-old summaries of facts and political decisions regarding tourism.<\/p>

Is this because nothing is happening in African tourism, or because things don\u2019t change that quickly? On the contrary, tourism on the continent is booming and very alive and, due to the fragile ecosystem in which it operates, it is crucial that it maintains full awareness of its current impacts as well as its potential threats and benefits.<\/p>

It is exactly for this reason \u2013 and for the great commitment of many people \u2013 that the tourism stories you will find at the grassroots level are so important. In many cases, they show what real dedication and pure care for the place can give birth to.<\/p>

Although the opposite continues to exist, there are also many stories of sustainable tourism and responsible practices on African soil that take place through tourism. They seem to grow organically bottom-up, embracing the different aspects of sustainability from environmental protection and conservation to cultural preservation and enhancement.<\/p>

Unfortunately though, these inspiring stories are not always visible and clearly shared. Although they are not \u2018news\u2019 in the strict journalistic sense, we believe that these ARE the stories that we need to find the time to share.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

At Inspire Global<\/em> we are building a community of conscious tourism companies that recognise their role and responsibility in the future of the continent<\/strong>, and they have decided to act to fully embody that mission.<\/p>

Let us share with you some of the stories from our members, in the hope that many more of these stories will appear on the mainstream channels tomorrow.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

The company, a family-run lodges business located around the marvellous Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe, is currently working on installing inverters and batteries to power the lodges and is interested in investing in solar energy as well. They also partner up with Greenline Africa Trust<\/em>, a local NGO that is active in the field of community and conservation.

In their Positive Impact Promise<\/strong> \u2013 which our members are asked to make when they join our community \u2013 Paradis Plage<\/a><\/strong><\/span> in<\/a> Morocco talks about teamwork at different levels.\u2018<\/em>We work constantly with our teams, associations, schools and also our guests, on increasing awareness of the need for careful environmental management,\u2019 they declared.<\/p>

We very much support this approach because the destructive side of tourism is a latent risk that can turn into reality if not honestly considered and faced. And we could not agree more with the care and commitment shared on their profile page when they affirm that \u2018tourism [\u2026] can be a force for environmental change.\u2019<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

The conservation efforts that the continent is undertaking, in some regions more than others, are strictly linked to the realisation that the goal will only be achieved with the inclusion of the local communities and their participation in the process.<\/p>

We have seen how critical the balance between wildlife and people is, especially around the national parks and the protected areas in sub-Saharan Africa. The management of the so-called human\u2013wildlife conflict, therefore, is at the centre of attention for governments and wildlife authorities in many countries, especially in East Africa.<\/p>

We have now reached a shared agreement that without the engagement of local communities, conservation cannot be achieved. Moreover, wildlife will not only continue to be at risk of survival but will continue to pose a threat to the local populations. Tourism is summoned to play a role in this story and the only way of doing this is to help maintain a healthy balance between communities and conservation.<\/p>

The work and commitment of companies like Volcanoes Safaris<\/a><\/strong><\/span> \u2013 whose story features in our Sponsored Member Spotlight <\/a><\/strong><\/span>\u2013 are built on a people-centred approach to conservation, where the community\u2019s health, well-being and education are the main factors in the equation.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Kerzner<\/a><\/strong><\/span>, which has recently joined Inspire Global<\/em>, also has some relevant stories to tell on the matter. The company is the home of one of the top five hotel brands in the world, One&Only<\/a><\/strong><\/span>, which has ultra-luxury resorts that work closely with community members<\/a><\/span>. Here, over time, they have seen poachers turn into eco-warriors in Rwanda.<\/p>

One&Only\u2019s partnership with the Twongere Kawa Coko Cooperative<\/em> \u2013 a women-led coffee organisation \u2013 not only provides their Gorilla\u2019s Nest <\/em>resort, located at the foothills of the Volcanoes National Park, with fresh coffee and skilled coffee workers but also offers the chance for guests to visit the cooperative and learn about the coffee production on the ground. In another region, tea experiences, from the harvesting to the tasting, are provided thanks to the collaboration established by One&Only<\/em> \u2013 Nyungwe House<\/em> with the Nyungwe Cultural Village Cooperative<\/em>, near the National Park.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

We strongly believe that tourism has a great potential for transformation and we are glad to hear that Asilia Africa<\/a> <\/span><\/strong>\u2013 another of our early founding members \u2013 is putting the essence of their vision into their Positive Impact Promise<\/strong>.<\/em><\/p>

\u2018We believe that tourism should be used for good and, when practised responsibly, can be a driving force in both the conservation and development<\/strong> of East Africa\u2019.<\/p>

We agree with them that sustainable development arises from a combination of practices in which tourism becomes the connective tool. Hodi Hodi<\/a> <\/strong><\/span>has developed its own businesses \u2018from community support and real family values\u2019 according to Julia Bishop, its owner and manager.<\/p>

Born and raised in East Africa, Julia and her brother Jake are the third generation of the family-owned and run business, which started with a beach house in Zanzibar built \u2018as an extension of the village\u2019<\/strong><\/span><\/a>. Hodi Hodi today also includes Ruaha Bush Camp, which sits on land which was given in concession by the community so that they can help protect it. It is patrolled by members of the communities themselves, showing another successful example of collaboration towards conservation.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

According to Julia though, that is not enough \u2013 tourism needs to act responsibly on a daily basis. Their recipe includes buying locally, employing local people, and supplying all the services they need at the local level. Julia is thrilled to share that it is doable and works well, beyond the satisfaction of witnessing how shy young men have developed a sense of pride and ownership in the place they helped to build.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

But it can be different, and while we congratulate Lifestyle Safaris<\/a><\/strong><\/span> for continuing its philanthropy travel in Kenya and Tanzania, we are also delighted to welcome Elewana Collection<\/a><\/strong><\/span> among our new members. Apart from offering luxurious safari experiences, they also embody the \u2018harmony\u2019 and \u2018understanding\u2019 that the name of the company evokes, in the way they connect with the territory they work in.<\/p>

The Land & Life Foundation<\/a> <\/strong><\/span>is their charitable side, which is \u2018focused on creating a sustainable future where communities and wildlife thrive together\u2019. This is done through a series of programmes that range from nature conservation and free medical camps, to staff capacity building in Laikipia and the Maasai Mara, as well as giving different kinds of support to local primary schools, both in terms of infrastructure and resources.<\/p>

Another admirable part of their work is their social engagement with Shanga<\/em>, a social enterprise established in 2007 that became part of the Elewana group in 2017, and was given long-term stability when it was incorporated into the company’s CSR programme.<\/p>

Shanga employs people with disabilities and provides them with the skills and work opportunities to help develop their independence and grow their self-esteem.
Among their high-quality products are jewellery, glassware and homewares that incorporate recycled materials and are sold both locally and internationally. Visitors can visit the open-air workshop and take part in a jewellery-making class or in a Swahili Sign Language lesson.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Rafiki Safaris’<\/span><\/a> Positive Impact Promise<\/strong> brings to light another important aspect of sustainable tourism that we value greatly.<\/p>

Beyond creating business opportunities and boosting the chance to grow and experience better life conditions, tourism also brings together different cultures and individuals<\/strong>.<\/p>

We believe that it is not a coincidence that this cultural remark came from Uganda.<\/p>

This is a land with great cultural diversity, which is not usually cherished in tourism. English and Swahili are the official languages, however, including Luganda, there are more than 50 other languages currently spoken in the country by a great variety of ethnic groups.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Visiting the Kikorongo Women, near Queen Elizabeth National Park, or taking part in a Kasoga Community experience<\/a><\/span><\/strong> on Lake George, are some of the cultural experiences that Rafiki presents.
These and the other community experiences offered by Rafiki remind us of the force that tourism can become when fully embraced to its potential. It is a force that can open new gates and help us discover images not usually associated with the African continent, but that constitute its very DNA.<\/span><\/p>

It is true though that, as an industry, we could shine a brighter light into those unseen corners and value the cultural heritage as much as we do the natural environment and biodiversity. Because it is not enough to bring together different cultures and individuals if there are no opportunities to learn from these encounters and share those learnings.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
