The Fort Museum of the NWMP and First Nations Interpretive Centre has undergone a comprehensive assessment to achieve Sustainable Tourism Silver Certified. The process includes a one-on-one review of our business practices with a GreenStep Assessor to see how we’re doing comparatively to the Global Sustainable Tourism Council recognized criteria.
GreenStep Sustainability focuses on the following:
- Management (includes community and staff engagement, marketing and communications, destination management, etc.)
- Social and Economic Impacts
- Natural and Cultural Interactions
- Environmental Impacts
Following the assessment, we received a report that recognizes where we are doing well, and also highlights areas where we have opportunities for improvement, helping us to form an action plan for continued success on our sustainability journey. We will be reassessed every two years to maintain our certification and our momentum.
Our goal is to keep improving our sustainability efforts to protect the rich land and culture we have around the museum and the community and allow it to flourish. We invite you to join us on our sustainability journey.
