Viewpoints is made available to adventure travel industry professionals and guest writers to offer varying perspective on a host of critical industry matters. Each contribution will be considered by the Adventure Travel Trade Association and are likely to fall into four broad types: news, policy, social and special. We ask that editorial pieces take the form of an essay or thesis, using arguments to promote a point of view. Counter-point editorials are encouraged.

It is our sincere hope is that this venue becomes a vibrant section that allows for differing viewpoints pertinent to the progress of our industry to be “heard”.
