The Global Destination Sustainability Movement is a transformation platform that engages, inspires and enables destinations to become more regenerative, flourishing and resilient places to visit, meet and live in.The GDS-Movement serves to accelerate the transformation from destination marketing at whatever cost, towards destination management and stewardship with shared value. Its mission is to promote and develop the regenerative strategies, skill sets and mindsets that will support destinations of the future.The GDS-Movement evolved from the Global Destination Sustainability Index; the world's leading sustainability benchmarking and performance improvement program for destinations, and their visitor economy. The GDS-Index was inspired by the International Congress and Convention Association (ICCA) Scandinavian chapter and MCI, where 15 pioneering cities created the Scandinavian Destination Sustainability Index. It has since evolved into a collaborative partnership between ICCA, IMEX Exhibitions, European Cities Marketing, MCI Group and GUBI consulting.The core pillars of the GDS-Movement include:1. the GDS-Index2. the GDS-Academy3. the GDS-Forum4. GDS-Consulting5. the GDS-Certification.Read our social media privacy policy here: http://bit.ly/gds-policy
