Promotional Manual

Having trouble promoting your inclusive, sustainable, and participatory tourism business?

EYR have developed a manual just for you!


Our manual has been created to support young people within rural areas and/or areas with population decline, interested in implementing sustainable, participatory, and inclusive tourism products either within established tourism businesses, or as new start-ups.

With an increasing demand for a more accessible, greener, more personally enriching and more ethical holiday experience, it is a great time for young entrepreneurs to take advantage of the this and launch their own innovative and inclusive tourism.

Part One of the manual supports the ideation and creation of a new tourism product, providing you with an overview to sustainable, participatory, and inclusive tourism and the key attributes they need to support you in defining your own product.

Part Two will provide guidance on the marketing of the new tourism product and the necessary information to kick-start its implementation and your business plan. Further information on this topic can be found in our accompanying manual on promoting your tourism business.

Part Three provides advice on the legal aspects to consider when selling tourism services within Europe and additional information on how to maximise your sustainability and accessibility credentials.

With a variety of good practice studies throughout this manual, providing examples of how others have successfully built sustainable, participatory, and inclusive tourism products, we hope to inspire you and equip you the necessary tools to promote your business!
