INVESTING IN SUSTAINABILITY RESOURCES In 2024, Quark Expeditions made a significant commitment to embedding sustainability across every aspect of our organization by introducing the Head of Sustainability. This key position underscores our dedication to integrating sustainable practices, from product development to operational delivery and everything in between. The Head of Sustainability leads initiatives that ensure our operations minimize environmental impact, promote economic benefits in the regions we visit, and uphold the highest standards of ethical sourcing and waste management. This investment aligns with broader efforts within our parent company, Travelopia, where similar roles have been introduced to support sustainability. Across our sister brands, there is investment in a unified push towards sustainable practices, reflecting various stages of their sustainability journeys. This collective approach allows for shared learning, resource pooling, and the development of best practices that benefit all Travelopia brands. By appointing a dedicated leader, Quark Expeditions ensures our sustainability efforts are not just aspirational but systematically integrated into our operations. This role is key to advancing our goals—conserving fragile polar ecosystems, fostering responsible tourism and reducing carbon emissions. It’s a bold step forward in our mission to lead the expedition travel industry toward a more sustainable future.
