4.2 The concept of sustainable tourism, including the growth of ecotourism
One case study of sustainable tourism in one low-income country
There are case studies below but to be honest I would have a focus on Uganda as a case study - Use the video on the right and then also the example shown below.
Example Uganda - You cannot use this - do your own!!
Document to go with the second presentation(note taking)
Presentation template: Make a copy and fill in using your case study.
Grading Sheet - Self Assess when you have finished.
E.g - Kenya case study (although not strictly an LIC)
Chatgpt Answer to past question using Uganda gorilla tourism
Interesting video linking Butler model to Bali
Positives and Negatives of Ecotourism - Know these..
This Years Case Studies - are they good enough to answer the following questions - Ecotourism Grading Sheet
For one specified LIC, does sustainable tourism offer a guaranteed road to development? (10)
This needs a full analysis looking at the positive + negative aspects of sustainable tourism with facts and figures.
How can ecotourism benefit communities in LICs? (6)
This is more descriptive but needs to focus on the idea that communities can mean people, animals and plant communities. - the need is therefore to look at the 3 pillars and link them to a case study.
