Seminário debates security in nature tourism of Campos Gerais

Safety in nature tourism in Campos Gerais will be the subject of a free seminar on Thursday (8), in Ponta Grossa. The event will be held from 2 pm to 6 pm, at Sebrae headquarters, and will bring together experts to discuss legislation, responsibilities, accident prevention and risk management in tourism activities carried out in natural areas.

Promoted by the Campos Gerais Tourism Development Agency (Adetur Campos Gerais), in partnership with Sebrae Paraná, the Campos Gerais Safer Tourism Seminar will have the participation of representatives of the Living Holiday Association, the Ponta Grossa Procon and the Brazilian Association of Adventure Tourism Companies (Abeta).

Registration is free.

Safety and prevention in tourism

The program begins with the lecture “When sequences of carelessness can turn the vacation of dreams into a nightmare”, presented by Beatriz Ribeiro and Sabrina Saltori Gonçalves, members of the Vivas Holidays Association.

According to Sabrina, coordinator of Institutional Projects of the entity, the region has great potential for nature tourism, but also requires attention to safety practices.

“We recently had the opportunity to get to know the region. This allowed us to observe both the potential and the need for careful action in safety. For us, it is very important to be close to the professionals who make tourism happen,” he says.

Legislation and liability

The first panel of the seminar will have as theme “Legislation, governance and safety in nature tourism: shared responsibilities”.

Participate in the debate Jaime Prado, Innovation Manager of Abeta and member of the Thematic Chamber of Tourism Legislation of the National Council of Tourism, and Nahim Filho, Procon coordinator of Ponta Grossa.

Prado will present aspects related to the laws and norms applicable to nature and adventure tourism. Procon will address consumer rights and the responsibilities of establishments that market tourist experiences.

Risk management can strengthen business

Another panel will discuss how security can no longer be just an obligation and become a differential for companies in the sector.

The theme will be led by Evandro Schütz, technical manager of Abeta and specialist in security management in adventure tourism, and by Sabrina Saltori Gonçalves.

Among the subjects foreseen are planning for emergency situations, preventive measures and procedures that entrepreneurs need to structure before the occurrence of accidents.

Nature tourism in the Campos Gerais

The closure of the program will be led by the president of Adetur Campos Gerais, Guilherme Forbeck, with the lecture “What kind of nature tourism do we want for Campos Gerais?”.

Forbeck points out that the seminar integrates a broader regional qualification strategy.

“The Seminar is a very important opportunity for our region, bringing technical knowledge, news and trends that can contribute directly to the strengthening of our program. More than discussing security, we want to contribute to a more organized, qualified, responsible and sustainable tourism,” he says.

According to him, the proposal is also to strengthen the Campos Gerais as a destination prepared to receive more visitors with quality and safety.

Campos Gerais Safer Tourism Program

The seminar is part of the Safer Tourism Program Campos Gerais, developed by Adetur Campos Gerais in partnership with Sebrae Paraná.

The initiative seeks to transform the region into a national reference in nature tourism and safe adventure, stimulating the adoption of technical standards, qualification of professionals, strengthening governance and sustainable practices.

The program has already promoted training and workshops for public managers and entrepreneurs, as well as First Aid courses in Remote Areas.

Currently, more than 20 establishments in eight municipalities of the Campos Gerais receive free mentorships focused on the Security Management System (SGS) applied to adventure and nature tourism.

For Nádia Joboji, manager of tourism and creative economy projects at Sebrae/PR, expanding knowledge about safety also brings positive economic impacts.

“The seminar is an important stage because it brings together entrepreneurs, public managers and experts to clarify doubts, discuss responsibilities and bring this knowledge to the day-to-day of enterprises. Investing in security is strengthening business and expanding the confidence of tourists in the region,” he says.
