Pitch



Tourism is a booming activity. Who here likes travelling? Did you know that tourism accounts for around 10% of the world's GDP and is also responsible for 8% of greenhouse gas emissions? How can we manage this challenge?

That is why it was created TravelconT, an academic project that aims to promote travel trips that leave a positive mark and stimulate an intercultural synergy using tourism itself as a catalyst for transformative change.
Creating absolutely memorable experiences – for those who visit and those who receive – is our motto! How is this proposal different? TravelconT inspires and encourages tourists to interact locally with a purpose. In what way? It invites them to participate with commitment, to deliver value by sharing their professional knowledge with the communities they visit and empowering them.

Starting from an Alliance Route based on Portugal's colonial heritage, now updated in the light of contemporary travel, TravelconT combines research, education, action, conservation and regeneration in an immense polyphonic network as a mediator of good practice.

The deeply enriching experience impacts and enhances the lives of both hosts and visitors. It is very tempting and inspiring to be part of this motivated and proactive team. Come and be part of an extremely immersive project. Your participation is already in our travel plan. Get on board with us now.
