The NRDA is proud to announce the imminent launch of our organisation's primary and enhanced website, poised to serve as a premier platform for members of the nature hospitality sector. This dynamic platform will facilitate education, collaboration, training, and development opportunities, aligning closely with the principles outlined in the UN's Environmental, Tourism, and Sustainable Development charters. With a focus on sustainability, biodiversity, design innovation, and operational excellence, our website will offer unparalleled access to the latest industry developments. In collaboration with partnering NGOs, our esteemed Governing Council, and Affiliate members, the NRDA website will emerge as a catalyst for the establishment of industry-backed best practices and self-governing standards. At the heart of our mission lies a fervent commitment to fostering harmony between hospitality and nature. We recognize the collective responsibility we bear in preserving the beauty and biodiversity of our planet for future generations. In line with our vision, we are actively seeking to expand our offerings in biodiversity conservation, habitat preservation, and sustainable training initiatives. If you or your organization share our passion for environmental stewardship and would like to join us on this journey, we invite you to consider becoming a member of our esteemed Governing Council.

Climate change is fundamental to why the NRDA exists. We fully support the International Monetary Fund's call for urgent policy action towards achieving a carbon-neutral economy. Global warming is a critical challenge that affects not only economies but the health and well-being of our planet. We are optimistic that, through responsible management and innovative policy changes, we can turn the climate crisis into an opportunity for global economic revitalisation. Quoting from Kristalina Georgieva's speech at King’s College, “We cannot have a better world without cooperation,” resonates deeply with us. At NRDA, we are dedicated to advancing collaboration, cooperation, sustainability and equity, responding to the urgent call for action to secure a hopeful future for everyone.
