In conversation with Nim Singh (Media and PR Manager, Destination Canada) and Sandra Ishmael (Director UK, NBTC Netherlands Board of Tourism & Conventions), Mark Bibby Jackson (of travelbeginsat40.com) discusses how DMOs are changing their ways of working in the face of overtourism, natural disasters, and community cries for a more mindful marketing approach. How does this impact travel writers and the travel media directly with changes to press trip support and budgets, and what should we be more mindful of when writing about destinations. 

This episode was recorded live at the British Guild of Travel Writers' Better World Symposium, in partnership with Destination Canada and hosted by Hyatt Place London City East.
