Local Partners & Initiatives

API connects with local initiatives and organizations to further community-based tourism and the preservation of cultural heritage.

Local partners play a pivotal role in the success and sustainability of community-based tourism and cultural heritage initiatives by:

Acting as ambassadors for their communities and facilitating meaningful interactions between visitors and community members,
Serving as catalysts for socio-economic advancement, and
Contributing to the preservation and revitalization of tangible and intangible cultural heritage.

We’re grateful to our local partners for guiding us both on the Path and in our work. Click on the logos below to learn more about our friends in the region!
