Responsible Tourism Week is a free unconference exploring down-to-earth applications of noble concepts including responsible tourism, conscious travel, the local travel movement and ecotourism with inexpensive social web. And if you are in London, Cape Town or Oaxaca, we have free local events to choose from!

We welcome financial sponsors, particularly institutions willing to invest in workshops focused on digital literacy training.

Contact Info
Ron Mader [|email Ron]

Who should participate?
For travelers, this is an opportunity to see where to go, how to travel and who to meet. Share what you love about conscious travel! For local tourism leaders and travel businesses, this is free advertising and an opportunity to learn good practices from around the globe. For journalists, authors and other media pros, this is an opportunity to scan beyond the horizon for new stories. Another plus: admission is free and there's no jet lag! Active participants are listed on this page and many of news mentioned in tweets are embedded on this wiki.

Why participate?
If you are curious about responsible tourism, Responsible Tourism Week lets you ask questions. It's a catalyst for many to get up to speed on off-the-shelf social web. If you can prepare a bit (suggestions below) and budget time during the week, you'll learn a lot. Exemplary performance will be recognized and rewarded. Let's pool our talents and learn together. The more information we have, the easier it is for others to contribute similar examples.

Sponsors
We are seeking sponsors for Responsible Tourism Week to help cover the development of training seminars and webinars to carry the conversations forward. Benefits include a link on this page and your logo on the official event info. Contact Ron Mader for details.

What's New in 2012?
What's new this year? We have contests, curation, zipcasts and a preview of upcoming events.

Contests! media type="custom" key="11985349" align="right"
 * We are preparing contests for [|travel companies] and [|language schools] featured on Planeta.com. Operations will be acknowledged and the favorites win bragging rights (and an extension of the Planeta.com listing for three months after the next renewal).
 * Another contest -- with rules being sorted out -- encourages collaboration within countries. We will recognize the countries which generate the most buzz about what responsible travel. Ideally, we will see regional and national tourism promotion identify and talk up local operations and local operations connecting with authorities. Winners receive bragging rights and a place on the Planeta Wiki's revised Top 10 List.
 * There's a poster challenge (details below). Again, the winner or winners receive bragging rights and a certificate. [|Check out the gallery for the nominees].

Curation is one of the big trends and we encourage participants to curate galleries, stacks, playlists and stories. Participants are asked to learn how curation works and then to announce their creations on our Facebook and LinkedIn pages and tweeting using the event hashtag. Examples are featured on the agenda.

Also new are real-time 30-minute zipcasts featuring presentations on Slideshare. We'll post the topics and times on this page.

Responsible Tourism Week 2012 previews upcoming tourism and conservation events, including the IUCN World Conservation Congress in Korea, the eleventh Conference of Parties (COP) to the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) in India and the the 20th anniversary of the Rio Earth Summit in Brazil. 2012 is also the 10th anniversary of the International Year of Ecotourism and we are conducting a survey asking what has been accomplished in the past decade.

media type="custom" key="12357952"

History
2012 is Planeta.com's 12th year of online conferencing and the fourth year for Responsible Tourism Week. We expect the conversations to take a great leap forward thanks to inspired participation from returning participants and those new to online conferencing and responsible tourism. Take a peak at what we accomplished during Responsible Tourism Weeks in 2011, 2010 and 2009. Each year our discussion has continued to mature.


 * May I contribute $ to support Responsible Tourism Week?** - Individual donations and institutional support are welcome. In fact, if there are large contributions ($500 and up), we would like to integrate this as a payment for webinars to keep the conversation moving forward.

What is Responsible Tourism?
Responsible tourism is treating others the way they wish to be treated. It's a variation on the Platinum Rule... it's also good manners. Put another way courtesy of the 2002 Cape Town Declaration on Responsible Tourism: "responsible tourism creates better places for people to live and better places to visit." Responsible travel is a must-have in the growing movement that connects visitors and locals.

What are the featured topics?
We are seeking some interesting stories about tourism's connections to accessibility, biodiversity conservation, indigenous peoples, food, parks and protected areas and volunteering. Other big questions to be explored are the connections between city and rural environments. Other topics: child protection issues, volunteering in orphanages, tourism certification, public transportation, proper disposal of batteries, recycling. Start documenting the lessons learned. Photos are ideal as are videos, podcasts and blogs. If you don't have a camera of your own, think about curating pictures via sites like Pinterest or assembling the info as a story via Delicious or Storify.

What are the featured places?
While Responsible Tourism Week takes place online, we will spotlight several places around the world as participants draw attention to critical issues taking place in specific locations. See below for the list of wiki pages that have been updated as a result of Responsible Tourism Week.

How does this event encourage collaboration?
One of the goals of Responsible Tourism Week is to encourage collaboration within local and regional communities. We would like to find ways out of institutional silos and get people to share information in a positive manner. Toward this goal, we'd like to propose that participants be generous in their words of praise and testimonials for others. It's blue sky thinking, but we'd like to change the finger pointing attitude that has a negative connotation to a means of recommending positive encounters and actions. Keep an eye on our country contest (see below) as we compare how different countries fare when it comes to promoting Responsible Tourism Week and showcasing specific examples of responsible tourism in action.

What is on the wiki?
In February we are asking editors of the Planeta Wiki to help edit the global review of tourism portals. Other pages we would like to call attention include volunteer, sami, tapas, rtsouthafrica, rtcities, maya, parks, biodiversity

What is the role of cities and responsible travel?
Responsible travel should be embedded within policies and part of the focus during the unconference will be to create a snapshot of major cities including Cape Town, South Africa; Las Vegas, USA and Oaxaca City, Mexico. This follows up on our work during last year's Responsible Tourism in Cities Workshop.

Why an unconference?
Simply put, we think participants can organize themselves and the unconference is the ideal approach. Traditional conferences are overly scripted without opportunities to engage one another. We created the Responsible Tourism Week as an inexpensive way to broaden and deepen conversations about travel and tourism. That said, the online unconference approach can be complicated, so Ron will be [|updating his blog] and [|storifying (not a real word ... yet) tweets] about Responsible Tourism Week. The point is to explore the social web by using the social web. The past three years Responsible Tourism Week has encouraged everyone to show the practical actions of making tourism beneficial to locals and visitors alike. With citizens seizing the day around the world, we think it's about time that we organize ourselves in travel and tourism.

How to participate?
Engaged participation in any event (online or on the ground) requires a commitment and a certain level of curiosity. In the table below we provide specific suggestions on what you can do before, during and after the unconference. You don't have to do everything, but do a few things to make the most within this format.

Circle the dates on your calendar and budget time. Introduce yourself via Facebook and LinkedIn Comment and ask questions on Ron's blog Share what you learn with family and friends. 'Responsible tourism' has little value if we cannot articulate its values outside of niche circles.
