Abstract

Ecotourism has become increasingly popular over the last decade, both with conservation and development organizations looking for means of generating an income from protected areas, and with tourists from the richer countries looking for new experiences. Biodiversity is not a tourism sector in itself therefore, it is a primary attraction or critical underpinning for a relatively distinct and quantifiable market sector, namely nature, eco and adventure tourism. Sustainable tourism requires the informed participation of all relevant stakeholders, as well as strong political leadership to ensure wide participation and consensus building. Basic purposes of ecotourism are to preserve and utilize natural and cultural resources in a sustainable way and to enable economic development of local people.
