Organised and coordinated by the International Tourism Partnership (ITP), it aims to build awareness among hotel staff, guests and local communities of environmental and social issues.

The first HEAM involved 700 hotels from across the world and organisers expect that the 2004 programme will generate even more response.

Activities cover practical environmental initiatives, environmental awareness and training, and global environmental programmes.
