Sustainability is at the heart of the promotion strategy of the canton of Vaud. Featuring lakes, mountains, cities and countryside, the canton boasts many assets that tourism professionals are keen to preserve in order to continue shining a light on their heritage both in Switzerland and abroad. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

VAUD is committed to sustainability<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A strategy and sustainable tourism<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Convinced of the need for a collective commitment to sustainable development, Vaud Promotion – the promotion body of the canton of Vaud – has embarked on this path.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2009, we signed the Sustainable Development Charter of Swiss Tourism<\/a>. This commitment has been strengthened over time, particularly with the implementation \u2013 as early as 2022 \u2013 of the new multisectoral strategy. Our goal is to promote the many facets of the canton as well as its sustainable efforts. In addition, we actively participate in the deployment of the Swisstainable programme<\/a> in Vaud. As such, Vaud Promotion has been EcoEntreprise certified since 2012 and has the \u201cLevel III \u2013 Leading\u201d of the Swisstainable programme.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The issues of economic, societal and environmental sustainability are at the core of obtaining our two labels that promote excellence in Vaud: VAUD CERTIFI\u00c9 D’ICI<\/a> and VAUD AMBASSADEUR<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
