CRUISE Lines International Association (CLIA) and the City of Dubrovnik on Wed signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to preserve and protect the cultural heritage of the Croatian town through responsible tourism management, and to establish it as a model of sustainable tourism in the Adriatic and beyond.
The MoU outlined action to be taken immediately, including engaging key stakeholders such as the local community and international organisations through establishing a dedicated working group; collaborating on a destination stewardship roadmap for the city based on United Nations sustainable tourism criteria; communicating and implementing the previously developed 2020 cruise ship berthing policy; and developing a “Respect the City” visitor education campaign.
The parties are also exploring the possibility of a Dubrovnik World Heritage Visitor Centre and Intermodal Transportation Centre in Gruz Port.
Pictured signing the Memorandum of Understanding is City of Dubrovnik Mayor Mato Frankovic and CLIA President & Chief Executive Officer Kelly Craighead.
