Bunge Hostel Participates in the ‘Sustainable Plejs’ Project

Bunge Hostel is participating in the Sustainable Plejs project, run by Gotlands Besöksnäring AB and Tillväxt Gotland. The project aims to make Gotland Sweden’s most attractive and sustainable destination by strengthening the tourism industry’s sustainable business models and collaboration with the local education system. By providing companies with new knowledge and working methods, the project contributes to the transformation of Gotland’s tourism industry.
