| MANAMA: EC3 Global has appointed Hyder Consulting as the first international company to be trained as auditors of the Green Globe Company Standard.
EC3 Global is a subsidiary of the Sustainable Tourism Co-operative Research Centre, a top provider of travel and tourism research and managers of Green Globe. Green Globe is the international Benchmarking and Certification programme for the travel and tourism industry based on the Agenda 21 principles for Sustainable Development endorsed by 182 heads of state at the United Nations Rio Earth Summit in 1992. This new partnership is an extension of the work Hyder Consulting has already undertaken in the area of the environment which includes impact assessments for major tourism developments in countries such as UAE, Bahrain and Qatar. “Sustainable tourism is at the core of Middle East regional development planning, and I am delighted that Hyder Consulting continues to demonstrate its international credentials in this area,” Hyder Consulting’s regional managing director Rod Stewart said. |
