The RARE Showcase began as a dream project in 2017, bringing together change makers to build shared value for the travel community in the Indian Subcontinent. Post pandemic, The RARE Showcase 2023 held at The Imperial New Delhi in June was a great way to reconnect with old friends and forge new partnerships. The vibe in the room, stories exchanged, and camaraderie was applauded by all. The RARE Conscious Travel Awards were initiated for the first time to have agencies engage with and pay attention to the RARE community’s values. The event was consciously geared towards keeping it devoid of frills and minimal wastage, in tune with RARE’s commitment to hosting a green event.
