However, as the report’s executive summary says “Sustainable tourism development can transform a destination and bring an amazing variety of good things to local communities.”
“Tourism can bring local employment opportunities and opportunities for sustainable local economic development. It can stimulate sustainable local economic growth & activity. It can foster training and educational activity. It can bring local pride in local culture, tradition and history.”
“Tourism can help develop cultural activities, help locals recognise the economic value of their environment by monetizing it, and enhance stewardship of both the local built and natural environment “
“Moreover, tourism can deliver powerful opportunities for social inclusion, opportunities for cross-cultural exchange and it can develop effective personal and commercial relationships.”
“Managed sustainably, tourism can deliver quite unbelievable opportunities for communities all over the world. At its very best, it can truly change the lives of both tourists and their hosts. And, it can act as a prime mover towards a greener, more educated and more informed world.”
There are, however, just three major questions to be considered before this nirvana is even in sight…”
