LETS is dedicated to multiple projects at the tourism-sustainability interface.

Natour Project (2020 - 2024)


Co-funded by Erasmus+, the NATOUR is a project that works in a network to create a graduate program in Ecotourism and Nature Guiding. Within a cooperation between the European Union and Latin America, it has partners in seven countries: Spain, Portugal, Germany, Bulgaria, Colombia, Chile and Brazil

O objetivo geral do NATOUR é desenvolver, validar e implementar um programa de estudos de pós-graduação conjunto na área do ecoturismo e natureza interpretativa, alinhado com as prioridades nacionais e setoriais dos Países Parceiros e de acordo os padrões de qualidade do ensino superior da União Europeia. 

LETS is part of the Natour Brasil network, made up of UnB and UFRRJ. The UnB Nucleus is composed of a triad: the Center for Sustainable Development (CDS), the Center for Excellence in Tourism (CET) and UnB Cerrado. The following teachers work in the project: André Cunha (local coordinator), Elimar Nascimento, Helena Costa and João Tasso, alongside colleagues José Luiz Andrade and Luiz Spiller.

Among the LETS - Natour actions, Evarist March Sarlat, our partner from Spain, gave an excellent presentation on the question: How do guides improve the quality of tourism and conservation in the 21st century: interpret to conserve or conserve to interpret? Check The video of the Meeting.
