\"Tourism<\/p>\n

T<\/span>ourism Cares and the Jordan Tourism Board have launched the first ever Meaningful Travel Map of Jordan<\/span>, researching and documenting twelve experiences that are at once powerful and positive for both travelers and communities.<\/p>\n

The map, released following 2017’s International Year of Sustainable Tourism for Development, addresses two overlapping trends for tourism today: demand from travelers for authentic, sustainable experiences that make a difference, and the need to use the power of travel to help people and places thrive.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

The Meaningful Travel Map of Jordan<\/span> was released as part of the Tourism Cares with Jordan<\/span><\/em> delegation, a group of 70 leaders from the North American travel industry committed to exploring travel’s potential to drive social impact through tourism.<\/p>\n

Each of the twelve experiences is offered by a nonprofit organization or social enterprise that, in addition to providing a quality cultural experience for travelers, also has a program for directly benefiting a disadvantaged population.<\/p>\n

“Any trip to Jordan<\/span> wouldn’t be complete without a visit to Petra and Wadi Rum \u2013 and one or two of these enterprises that offer a unique insight into the spirit and people of Jordan<\/span>,” said Ms. Lina Annab<\/span>, Jordan’s<\/span> Minister of Tourism & Antiquities.\u00a0 “Our people and communities have as much to offer as our heritage, and the good news is that you don’t have to choose.\u00a0 You can make a special difference just by coming.”<\/p>\n

The Meaningful Travel Map of Jordan<\/span> is distinctive for two reasons: the extensive due diligence and research behind each of the twelve listings, which is made available to travelers; and being designed explicitly as a resource for both travelers and the travel industry.\u00a0 These quality experiences will benefit from increased visibility and visitation, creating a win-win-win for travelers, company and community.<\/p>\n

“The very act of travel can be a force for good and these experiences are really about connecting people: travelers who are exploring Jordan<\/span> and the dynamic local leaders who are moving these communities forward,” said Derek Hydon<\/span>, chairman of the Tourism Cares Board of Directors.<\/p>\n

The map may be accessed at www.GoLocalJordan.com<\/a> with contact information and profiles available for each, including for download.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
