Mission Organisation Team Our Name Contact Us		THE PANGEA PROJECT is an initiative by Pangea ITS - Istituto per il Turismo Sostenibile.
		Pangea ITS is a not-for-profit organisation registered in Naples, Italy. The organisation was founded in 2003 and has established an affiliation in Germany at the beginning of 2004. The founders have extensive experience in tourism and a wide-ranging network of contacts in the tourism industry. Intimate knowledge of Latin America and contacts to local communities as well as development organisations have so far focused Pangea's activities on Central America.
		THE PANGEA PROJECT takes a business-oriented approach to sustainable tourism development. We help small, locally-owned tour operators to focus on the growing segment of international tourists who look for an "authentic travel experience" without wanting to sacrifice convenience. We encourage operators to focus on locally-managed hotels, services and community tourism initiatives through which we have an impact on a broader range. However, new sales and marketing channels need to be developed to make this strategy work. For small operators in particular, access to the international tourism market is crucial. We therefore market the "travel products" of our local partners under the umbrella of THE PANGEA PROJECT.
