Zita Cobb on Community Tourism and Her Newfoundland Inn
Briefly

"After the collapse of the cod fishery, the threat of resettlement loomed over Fogo Island's communities, highlighting the fragility of those dependent on natural resources for survival."
"Community resilience and innovation led to the creation of a cooperative, which ultimately helped the people of Fogo Island avoid resettlement and build their own future with a local shipyard."
"The Fogo Island Inn embodies the spirit of the island, weaving local culture through its architecture, welcome practices, and culinary offerings, making it a unique destination."
"Zita Cobb's efforts with the Shorefast Network exemplify how place-based economies can leverage local assets to revitalize communities and offer sustainable tourism opportunities."
