About the project

Local action.
Lasting value.

Following the procurement of clean-energy boats and kayaks to pioneer sustainable river tourism, our work in Chibati Village focused on building a resilient operational framework to balance commercial viability with strict ecosystem protection.

Location: Lanchkhuti & Chibati Village (A lowland and coastal area in Georgia's Guria region)

The Eight Technical Components in Action

Every component below is fully active in Chibati Village today.

Component One: Visitor Flow & Carrying Capacity (GSTC A4/D1)

We established physical and ecological limits to protect sensitive riverbanks and local animal habitats.

Component Two: Quality Assurance (GSTC A4/A9)

We implemented rigorous checklists for service, equipment, and daily operations, ensuring every boat tour meets a consistently high standard.

Component Three: Monitoring & Feedback (GSTC A1/A3)

We built an automated platform to collect visitor feedback and track real-time environmental data, driving continuous improvement.

Component Four: Safety & Crisis Preparedness (GSTC A11/A4)

We drafted comprehensive Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), water safety guidelines, and emergency evacuation plans. Safety is our absolute priority.

Component Five: Environmental Education (GSTC D1/A8)

We educate visitors on "Leave No Trace" principles and local ecosystem dynamics, turning tourists into active protectors of nature.

Component Six: Legal Compliance (GSTC A7/A10)

We strictly adhere to conservation laws, secure proper licensing, and respect labor codes to maintain a clean, fully compliant operation.

Component Seven: Local Livelihoods (GSTC B1/B2)

We created low-impact tour packages led by local entrepreneurs, ensuring tourism revenue stays in the village and directly benefits the community.

Component Eight: Post-Tour Protocols (GSTC A3/D1)

After every trip, we systematically clean and inspect equipment while logging operational data to preserve both our assets and the natural environment.
