TRAVEL OPERATORS FOR TIGERS (TOFT)
Travel Operators For Tigers (Toft)
The Travel Operators for Tigers campaign (TOFT) is a global travel industry initiative, in cooperation with Global Tiger Patrol, that aims to advocate, catalyse and support a more responsible and sustainable approach to tourism in Indias wildlife reserves, together with supporting specific conservation programmes which benefit the local communities and wildlife through the lodge and visitor community. The desire is that all those involved in ‘Tiger tourism’, including tour operators, accommodation providers, local services, park management and of course visitors will join together to halt the demise of the Tiger.
Through collective action and adherence to a Codes of Conduct the campaign aim is to make wildlife tourism in India more responsible and more sustainable.
Discovery Initiatives are a founding member of this campaign.
