Editor's Notes

  1. Geotourism definition matches well with SBCs mission
  2. The new easy-to-use GeoConsensus tool provides an efficient, flexible way to collect submissions from different places in the region. Working with NatGeo guidelines, the local editors review and prepare the submissions for publication on the website, available to the world of tourists. If cobranded with NatGeo, the siye will also have a direct link with the NatGeo site and its 10,000,000 unique visitors per month.
