Agents participating in the G Adventures Change Makers Challenge could earn a space on the operator’s annual Change Makers Summit which will be hosted in a mystery location in April 2020.
The 2020 challenge is running from July 1, 2019, until January 31, 2020.
Agents will automatically receive one entry per traveller booked and there will be wildcard opportunities throughout 2019.
They can also join the summit via a ‘social good’ entry submission. This category rewards agents who tell a story about how they have done work that gives back to their community or the travel community at large. The deadline for these entries is December 31.
Brian Young, managing director of G Adventures, said: “The Change Makers Summit was an incredibly powerful opportunity for our agency partners to experience a new take on the traditional fam trip.
“The feedback from the agents following the summit was that meeting the local people, visiting social enterprise projects and seeing firsthand the benefits of community tourism, powered by the trips that they sell was, quite simply, life changing.”
