In particular, FODSA is conducting a data collection survey on organic waste from 20 hotels on the island over a five-month period, which will serve as a \u201cguide\u201d for targeted interventions in the circular economy.<\/p>\n<p>The TRCL will soon acquire its own dedicated physical reference space. Construction work on its exhibition area (<strong>Showroom<\/strong>) is progressing as planned, creating an interactive exhibition space where residents and visitors will experience the island\u2019s \u201cgreen\u201d future across aviation, cruise tourism, hospitality, and energy.<\/p>\n<p>The discussion covered the full spectrum of sustainable development, highlighting projects with a strong impact on the local community:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>TUI Field to Fork:<\/strong> The programme that connects local agricultural production with hotels in Rhodes, training producers in regenerative agriculture. The Region expressed its clear intention to expand the initiative.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Sustainable Beach Vlycha:<\/strong> The transformation of Vlycha Beach into Greece\u2019s first certified sustainable beach, based on a three-year plan and with the potential to replicate the model in other beaches.<\/li>\n<li><strong>TUI Forest:<\/strong> The creation of a model forest in the area of the Monastery of Panagia Ypseni, in cooperation with the \u201cFor Nature\u201d organisation, as a strong symbol of environmental regeneration and resilience.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The two sides did not focus only on ongoing projects but also laid the groundwork for the next wave of initiatives, exploring, for example, plans for recycling at Rhodes Airport and the expansion of electric mobility in rental vehicles.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Governor of the South Aegean Region, Giorgos Hatzimarkos, stated:<\/strong> \u201cThe \u2018The Rhodes Co-Lab\u2019 is tangible proof of what public\u2013private cooperation can achieve when there are shared principles and a common commitment. We have the honour of working with a global leader in tourism, a partnership that fills us with both responsibility and pride. From the very beginning, the initiative was highly ambitious. Today, it is extremely encouraging to see the transition from ambition to reality, from planning to concrete projects and measurable results. In an international environment full of challenges, Rhodes continues to move forward with steady and hopeful steps toward the future.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>The CEO of the TUI Group, Sebastian Ebel, stated:<\/strong> \u201cTUI\u2019s sustainability strategy is delivering tangible results. Beyond being an environmental necessity, sustainability is increasingly becoming an economic opportunity. In Rhodes in particular, it is clear that the use of solar energy, the rational management of water resources, and innovative mobility solutions are creating significant benefits for visitors, employees, and the local community. Rhodes is doing an excellent job in this area and, despite the highly challenging international environment, is recording strong demand combined with impressive service quality.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>An expanding alliance: PPC becomes strategic partner in green mobility<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The meeting highlighted TRCL\u2019s ability to attract top-tier partners. Central focus was placed on the entry of PPC as a new strategic partner in the project. The partnership between the Region, PPC, TUI Group, and market stakeholders is now taking concrete form, with plans for the first integrated electric mobility network in Rhodes.<\/p>\n<p>During his visit, the head of Europe\u2019s largest tourism group also had the opportunity to meet TUI employees working both in the group\u2019s airline operations and in TUI Musement destination services in Rhodes.<\/p>\n<p>In a social media post, Sebastian Ebel referred to his experience on the island, highlighting the importance of TUI\u2019s human resources.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEvery flight is different, and our cabin and cockpit crews always manage to respond with a smile,\u201d he noted, while also thanking TUI Musement employees in Rhodes for their support to the group\u2019s customers and their social awareness.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Results of the Rhodes Co-Lab<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>According to the Governor of the South Aegean Region, the programme has already delivered significant actions across multiple sectors.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/money-tourism.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ebel-rodos-2026-1780470872994-1.jpg\" width=\"331\" height=\"282\" \/><\/p>\n<p>These include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The creation of the first Sustainable Beach in Vlycha.<\/li>\n<li>The \u201cField to Fork\u201d programme, which directly connects local producers with hotels.<\/li>\n<li>The \u201cAegean Skills\u201d training programme, implemented in cooperation with the University of the Aegean, aimed at education and upskilling of the workforce.<\/li>\n<li>The household composting initiative in collaboration with the South Aegean Regional Waste Management Authority (FODSA).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Special reference was made to the composting programme, as data presented show that 7,810 households in Rhodes are already actively participating, while by autumn it is estimated that around one-third of the island\u2019s population will have joined the initiative.<\/p>\n<p><strong>From the TUI Forest to the electric charging network<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Significant progress has also been recorded in the \u201cTUI Forest\u201d programme, which involves the creation of a new olive grove in an area affected by devastating wildfires in previous years.<\/p>\n<p>At the same time, progress was presented on the plan to develop an extensive network of electric vehicle charging stations across Rhodes.<\/p>\n<p>The project is being implemented with the participation of PPC (DEI), which is now actively joining the programme, strengthening public\u2013private cooperation for the island\u2019s transition to a more sustainable development model.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnother major player has come on board this wonderful journey, and this new partnership with PPC makes us even more optimistic and stronger,\u201d the Regional Governor stated.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Rhodes as an international model of a sustainable destination<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/money-tourism.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ebel-rodos-2026-17804720872994.jpg\" width=\"264\" height=\"352\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><a style=\"color: #ff0000;\" href=\"http:\/\/pnai.gov.gr\/\">Giorgos Hatzimarkos<\/a><\/span> underlined that the cooperation with the <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><a style=\"color: #ff0000;\" href=\"http:\/\/tuigroup.com\/\">TUI Group<\/a> <\/span>and the TUI Care Foundation is based on the pooling of strengths, knowledge, and experience, with the shared goal of creating a new model of tourism development.<\/p>\n<p>As he noted, the Rhodes Co-Lab demonstrates that tourism can act as a force for positive change, strengthening the local economy, social cohesion, employment, and environmental protection.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe largest tour operator in Europe and a Region with a vibrant economy driven by tourism have joined forces, energy, and ideas.
