序言

The Global Sustainable Tourism Council (GSTC) Criteria were created to provide a common
understanding throughout the world of “sustainable tourism”, and are the minimum that any
tourism business should aspire to reach. They are organized around four main themes: effective
sustainability planning, maximizing social and economic benefits for the local community,
enhancing cultural heritage, and reducing negative impacts to the environment. They haveapplicability to the entire tourism industry.
對永續旅遊而言，全球永續旅遊準則是對永續發展所達成共識的結果。對於任何致力於實
現永續旅遊的管理組織來說，這些標準都應當成為其力求達到的基準標準。為實現永續旅遊，應達成以下四個目標：㈠有效的永續發展規劃；㈡當地社區之社會與經濟利益最大化；㈢提升文化傳承效益；㈣減少環境負面影響。上述標準適用於整體旅遊產業。

The Criteria have been developed and revised while striving to adhere to the Standard‐Setting
Code of the ISEAL Alliance, the body recognized to provide guidance on international norms fordeveloping sustainability standards in all sectors. The Criteria are revised every 3 to 5 years.
Plans for revisions plus advance sign‐up for public input into future revisions are available on
www.gstcouncil.org. The website also provides information on the process and history of theCriteria development.
此標準遵循國際社會與環境認可和標籤聯盟（ISEAL）的標準制定規範(Standard-SettingCode)而建立與修改，作為國際永續旅遊準則的指導方針，每三到五年修改一次。相關修
訂資訊、欲參與修訂或瞭解修改的過程與準則建立的沿革，請參照官網
www.gstcouncil.org

Some of the uses of the criteria include the following:• Serve as the basis for certification for sustainability• Serve as basic guidelines for businesses of all sizes to become more sustainable, andhelp businesses choose sustainable tourism programmes that fulfill these global criteria• Provide greater market access in the growing market for sustainable products, serving
as guidance both for travellers and for travel agencies in choosing suppliers andsustainable tourism programmes• Help consumers identify sound sustainable tourism programmes and businesses• Serve as a common denominator for information media to recognize sustainable
tourism providers• Help certification and other voluntary programmes ensure that their standards meet abroadly‐accepted baseline• Offer governmental, non‐governmental, and private sector programmes a starting point
for developing sustainable tourism requirements• Serve as basic guidelines for education and training bodies, such as hotel schools anduniversities• Demonstrate leadership that inspires others to act
該標準的用途包括以下幾方面：


作為永續認證的基礎
為致力於永續發展的企業提供基本指南，並協助企業選擇符合全球永續旅遊準則的項
目向公眾推廣永續旅遊產品，作為遊客與旅行社選擇永續旅遊項目與供應商的指導標準

幫助消費者識別名實相符的永續旅遊項目與企業
成為資訊媒體識別永續旅遊供應商的共同基準
為認證以及其他自願性服務計畫相關專案提供參考依據，使其符合永續旅遊的基本原則與要求
為政府部門、非政府組織、旅遊業者提供永續旅遊發展的基本框架
作為旅遊院校等機構教育培訓的基本指導方針



展示領導力，激勵他人採取行動

The Criteria indicate what should be done, not how to do it or whether the goal has beenachieved. This role is fulfilled by performance indicators, associated educational materials, andaccess to tools for implementation, all of which are an indispensable complement to the GSTC
Criteria.
最後需要說明的是：該準則僅僅指出了應該做什麼，而未表明怎樣去做或目標是否已經實
現。這些都需要績效指標、相關教育材料與實施細則來實現，而這一切也正是實施全球永續旅遊不可或缺的補充。

Criteria Application
應用
It is recommended that all criteria be applied to the greatest extent practical, unless for a
specific situation the criterion is not applicable and this is justified. There may be circumstancesin which a criterion is not applicable to a specific tourism product, given the local regulatory,
environmental, social, economic or cultural conditions. In the case of micro and community‐
owned tourism businesses which have a small social, economic and environmental footprint, it
is recognized that limited resources may prevent comprehensive application of all criteria.
Further guidance on these criteria may be found from the supporting indicators and glossary,
published by the GSTC.
建議廣泛地應用所有標準並充分發揮其指導作用，但是也要因地制宜，在特定環境下，變
更或刪去標準的某些條款，則顯得更加理性。對於特定旅遊產品或目的地管理機構，考慮到其地方監管制度與環境、社會、經濟、文化等因素，不可僅僅照抄全球永續旅遊標準的
