Projected Benefits
Integrate tourism into broader planning and management tools and functions •The recommendations should ensure that sustainable tourism policies and priorities are reflected in the wider policies of the local authority towards sustainability, and vice versa. However, this synergy should also be carried forward into actual management processes on a day-to-day basis. Promote more sustainable transport Transport and traffic management is a major issue for sustainable tourism, including: • Encouraging use of less polluting transport, with global and local benefits. • Reducing traffic congestion, noise, and related problems. Actions should address transport to and within destinations, and should cover information and marketing as well as physical provision.
Conserve and promote natural and cultural heritage resources • Conservation and restoration projects at specific sites; • Visitor management initiatives; • Promotion of natural and cultural heritage themes and features to visitors. • Methods of raising more support from tourism for conservation, including use of admission charges and encouraging voluntary donations; and • Improving information and interpretation, including developing events programmes and training local people as guides
Spread tourism benefits and opportunities to all Opportunities for local people to benefit from tourism should be pursued without discrimination. In addition to the participatory measures outlined in the previous section, relevant action includes: • Promoting employment opportunities widely throughout the community; • Providing necessary skills training; • Seeking to improve pay and conditions; • Pursing equal employment opportunity policies with respect to race, gender, disability, etc.; • Making tourism and leisure facilities available to local residents. Equity principles should also apply to visitors. Relevant action includes: • Improving accessibility to the destination and its facilities for people with disabilities; • Promoting a wide selection of accommodation and attractions with a range of prices; • Maintaining surveys of visitor satisfaction and other feedback processes; • Taking steps to meet the needs of different types of visitor.
Women empowerment for financial independence and job opportunities for ladies who are homemakers. Women can train as guides and take people around in the places like the “pol” area . And also start their own home industries for products like pickles and other snacks.
By altering the existing structure of the model for local tourism, we have here a structure that is self sustaining and also uplifts the community and its infrastructure and economy. Where Tourism becomes an avenue for revenue generation not only for the investors but also for the local community who participates. Tourism has a major impact on local communities in tourist destinations. It can be a significant source of income and employment for local people. It can also pose a threat to an area’s social fabric and its natural and cultural heritage, upon which it ultimately depends, but if it is well planned and managed it can be a force for their conservation. • Ensure that tourism planning and development address key issues relating to the economic, social, and environmental impact of tourism in the long and short term; • Place tourism within the overall context of the sustainable development and environmental management of the community; • Provide a framework for, and give legitimacy to, the participation of a range of stakeholders in tourism and representatives of the local community; • Raise the profile of tourism and the tourism strategy within the community; • Strengthen the position of the authority as an organization that takes sustainable tourism seriously, with national and international support; and • Help the destination to attract the attention of visitors and tour operators keen to visit or work with sustainable destinations.
