What is Destination Net Zero?
The Destination Net Zero programme is a key strand of the £25 million Tourism Recovery Programme. It's delivered on behalf of the Scottish Tourism Emergency Response Group (STERG) by:
- Highlands and Islands Enterprise (HIE)
- Scottish Enterprise (SE)
- South of Scotland Enterprise (SoSE)
- VisitScotland and partners
Together, we’re investing in the programme, worth almost £4 million, to support Scotland’s tourism industry on the journey to net zero. It consists of:
- Research to discover the state of sustainability in tourism
- Advice on taking climate action
- Funding to support businesses and destinations to transition a greener future
- Building resilience of businesses and destinations
- Aligning emissions with Scottish Government targets
