Travel Unity has launched Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) Standards for Travel and Tourism.
They are designed to assist travel companies and organizations in benchmarking their commitment to DEI and to provide a roadmap for evaluating their future efforts.
We are now inviting tourism organizations to help us pilot the upcoming certification program that will be based on these standards.
**There are 4 slots left in the second and final cohort. This form is for organizations who have been invited via Travel Unity or one of its partners to submit.**
=======================
ELIGIBILITY
*Organizations that welcome visitors (e.g. hotels, tour companies, museums, DMOs, CVBs, etc.)
*Organizations can operate anywhere in the world
PILOT PROCESS
*An introductory call between your organization and Travel Unity (30 minutes or less)
*DEI Prep Sessions (75-minute call + followup report prepared by Travel Unity + 30-minute debrief)
