Striving for sustainability - Case studies in Indigenous Tourism
Self-managed tourism can provide many economic, cultural and social benefits to Indigenous people. Participation by Aboriginal people in the tourism industry, however, remains limited. This book examines the factors that impede full engagement and how they might be addressed. Case studies from Australia, Canada, New Zealand and South Africa highlight the diverse range of advantages that Indigenous tourism can provide to individuals, communities and the environment - as well as the potentially negative impacts of poorly managed tourism.
