Dusit partners with World Animal Protection to help promote responsible wildlife tourism

Dusit’s group-wide commitment to sustainability includes ensuring its operations do not cause harm to the wildlife who call its various destinations home.

Bangkok, Thailand, 13 December 2021 – Dusit International, one of Thailand’s leading hotel and property development companies, has partnered with World Animal Protection, one of the world’s leading non-profit animal welfare organisations 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 centres and mindful trekking amongst nature, Dusit hopes to delight its guests with authentic, localised experiences while empowering its employees and customers to be wildlife-friendly travellers and advocates. The partnership was officially signed at Baan Dusit Thani, Soi Saladaeng, recently.
