Outstanding contributions Ecoretreat is an activity and tour operator which provides eco-retreats for employees of companies of all sizes. Their approach is to offer a tailor-made experience to assure that participants will feel a deep connection with nature to recharge their batteries. They provide full travel packages, from transportation to eco-accommodation, bird-watching, collecting mushrooms in the woods or cleaning the beaches of Costa Brava. In response to an increase in stress levels and hybrid-working, they seek to restore a sense of purpose and enable people to give something back to nature. The company has set objectives for reducing CO2 emissions and a monitoring plan has been developed. They also take action against plastics and waste. All their programmes take place within Catalonia and they have established many local partnerships, as well as seeking to provide opportunities for young professionals. Suppliers, such as accommodation providers, activity operators and guides, have to demonstrate a commitment to sustainability, assessed through a checklist. Clients are provided with information on local nature and how to respect it, such as minimising noise levels. |
