The tourism industry impacts heavily on local areas and communities in a number of key ways. Economically, both domestic and international tourism can bring many benefits, although in some cases when you scratch the surface, it can also serve to deprive a local community of economic gain. Tourism also has socio-cultural and environmental impacts, which can be destructive to local areas.
This film presents a range of tourism impacts and highlights the importance of awareness of, and sensitivity to, the detrimental effects that poorly managed tourism can have. It also looks at sustainable tourism and strategies to minimise negative impacts.
Three interviewees from organisations within the travel and tourism industry that aim to promote sustainable strategies provide some informative and thought-provoking commentary.
