A
training seminar "Eco-efficient technologies in tourism" was held in Sortavala on May, 30 as a part of project KA358. The participants of the Seminar
were presented the experience and best Russian and foreign practices of
establishment and development of tourism stopovers along popular tourist
routes.
The
target group of the Seminar included specialists of District and Settlement
Administrations, local entrepreneurs, experts and community leaders developing
tourist services in the District, as well as students of Sortavala college who
will implement eco-efficient technologies in practice in the near future.
The
keynote of all presentations and vivid discussions was an idea that the introduction
of eco-efficient technologies is inevitable despite of all challenges and
limitations that exist in Russia. Ultimately, every ruble spent on increase in eco-efficiency
leads enormous benefits through the decrease of costs and increase in profit.
However we should remember that tourists pay for a beautiful view from the
window of his cottage, but not for the energy efficient heat pump installed
there. This is why it's extremely important to find a balance between the
introduction of eco-friendly technologies and natural beauty of leisure areas.
