Find The Right Path

Since I met Robin 20 years ago at a workshop on historic trails in the Himalayas and Alps, our paths have crossed several times. Most recently, we worked together on a research project on tourism, ecological and cultural development in the World Heritage Site of Sagarmatha National Park. His integrative approach to the question of how to make our future sustainable is exemplary and helps us to find the right direction.

It is impossible for me to sum up Robin’s vast body of work in a few lines. What sets him apart is that his frameworks are drawn from extensive field work, a deep understanding of the subject matter and insights that escape ordinary minds. Robin’s knowledge and wealth of experience in tourism, marketing and sustainable business is staggering, like the Great Himalaya Trail. Not for nothing he gets invited by countries to consult on their economy, agriculture and tourism. Robin’s policy frameworks on ESG practices and sustainable communication are reverse engineered, they are built on a strong foundation of practice that is tried, tested and trusted. Importantly, Robin deeply cares for nature, the mountains and the communities he has worked with. I have had the privilege and joy to work and walk alongside Robin. I would imagine that he is one among a rare few that his work, product or service, particularly in the world of sustainable businesses will hold an edge.

Robin and his team are extremely versatile, highly intelligent and reliable colleagues who bring a combination of informed scientific knowledge, analytical, human and communication skills to the table.

From over a year of collaboration the ESGRP team has demonstrated exceptional expertise in both the theoretical and practical aspects of ESG reporting and strategies, coupled with decades of industry experience that uniquely positions them to deliver exceptional insights and capacity building.

Robin is a pleasure to work with! His strategic insights on sustainable tourism combined with his technical and practical understanding of business and marketing are an asset to the tourism sector.

Robin has been instrumental in guiding and mentoring the implementation of the sustainable tourism in India and Nepal. His visionary leadership, combined with a clear, action-oriented approach, was key to helping us successfully raise awareness and kickstart the initiative in these regions. Robin’s deep knowledge of sustainability and strategic insights helped us navigate challenges with confidence, while his ability to respond quickly and effectively ensured that we could make swift progress. His mentorship has not only been invaluable in shaping the program’s success but has also inspired us to continually strive for excellence in promoting responsible tourism practices. We are truly grateful for his unwavering support and commitment.
