Our story
Millennium Destinations (MD) was founded in 2010 in Seoul, South Korea, by Catherine Germier-Hamel.
In the beginning, MD was an initiative aimed at giving less-known tourism destinations and businesses more exposure so that they could attract visitors and get access to markets. MD also shared practical solutions and insights on how tourism can contribute to global sustainable development and the achievement of the UN Millennium Development Goals.
In 2014, MD became an international expert network engaged in the development and promotion of tourism destinations, businesses, and products/experiences. In early 2016, MD was incorporated as a Seoul-based boutique consulting firm agency offering positive services and solutions for sustainable development, management, and marketing to its clients and partners.
MD has been a strong advocate for Community-Based Tourism (CBT) as a desirable solution for the sustainable development and empowerment of local communities around the world. In line with this, MD has designed Herost, a positive travel guide and toolkit that promotes sustainable, community-centric travel experiences powered by local heroes.
