Bengaluru (Karnataka) : Tamara Leisure Experiences is a responsible hospitality company whose founders created the Responsible Hoteliers of Tomorrow Internship Programme to share the company’s extensive and innovative sustainable tourism models with the next generation of mission-driven hoteliers.
The programme is looking for undergraduates from a wide range of academic disciplines who are interested in interdisciplinary careers that prioritise people, the planet, and profit.
The first 6 weeks of the internship will be spent in the Tamara offices in Bangalore, before interns move on to complete projects at the Coorg, Kodaikanal, or Trivandrum locations. Through operations training, community engagement, and project work, interns will be introduced to the future of sustainable tourism and will gain both a theoretical and practical understanding of:
– A Holistic and Practical Approach Towards Sustainability
– The Global Sustainable Goals (SDG) – UN Sustainable Development Goals
– The Global Sustainable Tourism Council
– Local Biodiversity
– Synergising Environmental Planning with the Community
– Foundational Hotel Operations and
– The Importance of Individual Sustainability Commitments
Interns who successfully complete the program will be awarded a certification. The top 5 graduating interns will be considered for a role at Tamara Leisure Experiences.
“This initiative is the product of a personal commitment I made at the World Economic Forum,” said CEO and Director Shruti Shibulal, a Young Global Leader. As co-lead of the Global Future Council’s Sustainable Destinations workstream, I saw the importance of human capital building for lasting change. Hospitality, which employs a large portion of India’s workforce, is ideal for knowledge sharing and future shaping. Tamara Leisure Experiences trains and supports the next generation of sustainable hoteliers through this programme.
Applications for the summer internship are currently open, with the first cycle scheduled to begin in July 2023. Interested applicants can submit their application here: https://tamaraleisureexperiences.com/responsible-hoteliers-of-tomorrow.
