Join us for a free public forum focusing on the role of Indigenous Business Leaders in Ecotourism. The TIES forum will offer dynamic perspectives on conservation and cultural issues by a panel discussion featuring Indigenous business leaders and ecotourism experts.

Discussions will focus on the critical role that Indigenous peoples a round the world play as environmental stewards and sustainable business owners and operators. Continue the innovative full day experience by incorporating local experience with global knowledge!

All the participants will be provided complimentary one-year TIES Traveler-level membership to encourage support for ecotourism and action to sustainable change and conservation.
