Support program for the development of tourist attractions (PADAT) - Component 1

Towards responsible and sustainable tourism

In order to ensure a prosperous future for its businesses and for future generations, the Ministère du Tourisme is committed to making Québec a leader in responsible and sustainable tourism. The measures it intends to implement are gathered in the Action Plan for responsible and sustainable tourism . The 2021-2025 Tourism Intervention Framework: Acting Today. Transformer Tomorrow will support projects and initiatives in line with the objectives pursued by this action plan.
