These cover a range of issues from <a href=\"https:\/\/travindy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Slum-Tourism-Report-print-web.pdf\" rel=\"nofollow\">Slum Tourism<\/a> and the <a href=\"https:\/\/travindy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Animals-in-Tourism-lWeb-FINAL-1.pdf\" rel=\"nofollow\">welfare of animals in tourism<\/a>, to the <a href=\"https:\/\/travindy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/The-perceived-impacts-of-all-inclusives-%E2%80%93-survey-results.pdf\" rel=\"nofollow\">impact of all inclusives<\/a>, issues around volunteering, and the need for <a href=\"https:\/\/travindy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Water-Equity-Tourism-Report-TC.pdf\" rel=\"nofollow\">Water Equity.<\/a><\/li>\n<li>A fascinating article written for us by the organisation\u2019s original founder, Alison Stancliffe, telling the story of <a href=\"\/?page_id=34107\" rel=\"nofollow\">30 years campaigning to make tourism responsible<\/a>, a journey that started long before Responsible Tourism was even a term.<\/li>\n<li>A series of Ethical Travel Dilemmas, with advice from the organisation on how tourists should act when confronting them. The questions answered range from &#8216;<a href=\"\/?p=30579\" rel=\"nofollow\">Should you haggle?&#8217;<\/a> to &#8216;<a href=\"\/?p=30478\" rel=\"nofollow\">Should you use Airbnb?<\/a>&#8216;<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"\/?cat_ID=3155\">Several articles from the last five years<\/a>, mostly focusing on the organisation\u2019s key remit of supporting local communities in their struggles against tourism development; all the online annual reports back to 2006; and back issues of the In Focus magazine.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>I hope this archive is of use. If you find something amiss, or believe I have forgotten an essential report, or neglected a key campaign \u2013 please let me know and I will do my best to get it uploaded.<\/p>\n<p>Most importantly, although Tourism Concern is no more, Travindy will do what it can to offer a place where people can tell the world when their communities or environment are at risk from reckless tourism developments. If you have a story that needs to be heard, please get in touch.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The majority of Tourism Concern&#8217;s website content can now be found on
