What if your next trip could do more than broaden your horizons? Join us for a thought-provoking conversation on sustainable tourism and learn how to travel in ways that better support the people and places you visit. Through firsthand stories from Peru’s Sacred Valley, Amanda Aronson explores what responsible travel looks like on the ground, where dramatic Andean landscapes, deep cultural traditions, and women-led artisan cooperatives offer a powerful example of tourism rooted in connection, respect, and community impact. You’ll leave with practical, values-driven ideas for making more mindful travel choices wherever your adventures take you. About our speaker: Amanda Aronson is the founder of StoryB, an international research and consulting firm focused on helping mission-driven organizations create lasting social change. A documentary fieldwork researcher with more than 25 years of experience, she brings a global perspective and a deep commitment to translating lived experience into meaningful action.
