Five hotels in Laos, Souphattra Hotel, Luang Prabang View Hotel, Angsana Maison Souvannaphoum Hotel, Salana Boutique Hotel, and Maison Dalabua Hotel, have received certification from the Travelife sustainability programme thanks to support from the EU-funded SUSTOUR Laos project. The hotels have committed to sustainable consumption and production practices throughout their supply chains and business processes, which made them eligible for the certification. During the 2023 Made-In-Laos Opening Ceremony, the awards were presented by the honorable Dr Sonexay SIPHANDON, Prime Minister of Laos, and Charge de Affairs of the European Union Delegation in Laos, Mr. Niall Leonard. The event recognises the importance of sustainable practices in the tourism industry for long-term recovery and environmental protection. The SUSTOUR Laos project is run in partnership with Plan International Laos, the European Centre for Ecological and Agricultural Tourism, and LNCCI to promote sustainable consumption and production practices in the tourism industry.
