There is no doubt that sustainability has been the hot topic of this month, marked by COP26 – the 26th UN Climate Change Conference held in the UK. New, urgent goals and objectives were established and all participants highlighted the need for international cooperation.

Meanwhile, slowly but gradually, companies are starting to take more action on sustainability. The tourism industry continues to await expectantly the new normalisation, regeneration, and reactivation of the sector.
