Under the shadow of the global pandemic and climate crisis, tourism is facing unprecedented uncertainty. But in this time of adaptation and resilience comes an extraordinary opportunity to reset and reimagine - returning to business as usual is no longer an option.
Join Debbie Clarke and Josie Major as we set out on a journey to discover what reimagining tourism looks like in NZ and globally, unpack the nuances of sustainable, responsible, community-led and conscious tourism, and move towards the mindset shift that is regenerative tourism.
We offer this platform of collective discovery for operators, travellers, and communities to share their stories, and we invite you to join us on this journey.

Tourism’s Interconnectedness: Regenerative Food Systems - Part 3 with Nate Smith
In our third episode of three exploring how tourism can support regenerative food systems, we’re thrilled to bring you our conversation with Nate Smith of Gravity Fishing, a man who is a force of nature! Nate was concerned that no one else was doing anything about the extractive fishing industry in Aotearoa and took action to transform the industry, while also using food tourism to reconnect his guests with nature.
Nate speaks to many of the topics we’ve discussed this second season of GOOD Awaits: the power of stories in reshaping our guiding narrative, returning to old ways of knowing, connecting to place through food, educating guests by reconnecting them with the wild, redefining growth, using technology in new and innovative ways, thinking and acting at a systems level, and perhaps most importantly, believing that ‘a small guy’ can change a whole system.
We can all be inspired by Nate, and ask ourselves, “What won’t happen if you don’t step up and do it?”
