Dusit International, has partnered with World Animal Protection, one of the world’s leading non-profit animal welfare organizations which moved the world to protect animals for more than 50 years, to create new guidelines and policies that will help to limit the impact of Dusit’s operations on natural habitats by promoting responsible wildlife tourism in each of its destinations.
By offering eco-friendly, community-based activities like trips to elephant conservation centers and mindful trekking amongst nature, Dusit hopes to delight its guests with authentic, localized experiences while empowering its employees and customers to be wildlife-friendly travelers and advocates.
