Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of any
patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or on
the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www.iso.org/patents).

Introduction
Adventure tourism
Adventure tourism is a global industry that is growing in importance. Whether provided on a commercial,
not for profit or charitable basis, adventure tourism activities involve an accepted, inherent element
of risk and challenge. Taking risks brings rewards but also brings dangers. In order to maximize the
rewards, adventure tourism activity providers should operate as safely as practicable.
ISO 21101, ISO/TR 21102 and ISO 21103 provide a basis for adventure tourism activity providers to
plan, communicate about, and deliver adventure tourism activities as safely as practicable.
Effective implementation of these International Standards will help consumers make informed choices
about activities and providers.
Adventure tourism standards
The purpose of these International Standards is to set out the minimum requirements for safety
management systems and communication to participants.
The following two International Standards are independent entities since they apply to different aspects
of adventure tourism:
— ISO 21101: specifies how the adventure tourism organization manages its operations in terms of safety.
— ISO 21103: specifies the minimum information that shall be communicated to participants and
potential participants before, during and after the activity to ensure safety.
ISO/TR 21102: provides data on the minimum competence of adventure tourism activity leaders.
Purpose of this Technical Report
Adventure tourism activity leaders’ competences for conducting participants and assuming responsibility
for them is a critical factor in ensuring delivery of safe adventure tourism activities.
Competence is a concept that involves not only skills but also a knowledge of attitudes or attributes.
Depending on the type of adventure tourism activity (rafting, hiking, cascading, climbing, among others),
different competences are required. Nevertheless, there are some competences that are common to
every adventure tourism activity. These common competences (and the respective expected results)
are the focus of this Technical Report.
It is expected that competent leaders for specific adventure tourism activities will use this Technical
Report as a reference.
