As part of its Sustainable Sentosa strategic roadmap, the islandcity targets to achieve carbon neutrality by 2030 and become a globally recognised, certified sustainable tourism destination. The island has rolled out various initiatives in this cause – as well promote a sustainable lifestyle among its visitors. How can Sentosa position themselves as a fun, and eco-friendly destination through effective storytelling?
While Sentosa has established itself as a tourism destination, through storytelling, Viddsee uncovers a different side of Sentosa to strengthen its positioning as a sustainable destination. The campaign unveils sustainability practices of various attraction centers through the lens of its KOL visitors – from a farm to table restaurant to intertidal walks advocating for the protection of the wildlife.
