The responsible travel event at ITB Asia is being co-organized by The Blue Yonder, Traveltocare.com and Wild Asia.

The networking session was preceded at 5.15pm by a PATA press briefing on corporate social responsibility. PATA and its partners, GTZ and SNV, presented a case study on 15 successful examples of CSR in the Asian travel Industry.
