Green Growth 2050 – A New Global Standard

The Green Growth 2050 Global Standard is based on a range of internationally recognised environmental and hotel industry sustainability standards.

Green Growth 2050 has been developed to meet the needs of tourism and travel businesses seeking today’s solutions to the issues driving social, cultural and environmental change and move beyond the current one-dimensional, legacy, certification-based solutions of yesterday.

These include:

  • UN Global Compact;
  • The UNEP Green Economy Principles;
  • UN Declaration of Human Rights;
  • The Code against the sexual exploitation of children;
  • UNWTO Ethics in Tourism;
  • International Labour Organisation Standards; and,
  • The Global Sustainable Tourism Criteria for Hotels and Tour Operators.


A New Software Paradigm

Green Growth 2050 is delivered through InVision2050; an innovative CSR and sustainability software solution comprising modules for:

  • Performance Management
  • Compliance Assessment

InVision2050 enables your organisation to measure its sustainability performance across a range of key performance metrics.
