Dhaka : The Tour Operators Association of Bangladesh (TOAB), in collaboration with Mission Green Bangladesh (MGB), on August 26, launched a nationwide campaign titled "Go Green, Go Beyond" aimed at promoting responsible and environment-friendly tourism.
The campaign was inaugurated at the historic Sixty Dome Mosque in Bagerhat, a UNESCO World Heritage site, in association with the Tour Operator Association of Sundarban (TOAS), said a press release.
The initiative reflects a collective commitment to safeguarding Bangladesh's natural and cultural heritage.
TOAB Board of Directors, TOAS Joint Secretary Mazharul Islam Koche, and TOAB members were present at the launching ceremony.
As part of the campaign, tree plantation drives will be carried out at popular tourist destinations across all divisions, encouraging both travelers and local communities to embrace sustainable tourism practices.
