| Abstract
|
:
|
This publication summarizes the papers presented by country representatives attending the Seminar on Poverty Alleviation through Sustainable Tourism Development and two concept papers prepared by experts on the topic of tourism development and poverty alleviation. The tourism development models which are presented place great importance on sustainable tourism and pro-poor tourism. While the most desirable goal focus on the benefits of tourism and its positive impact, it is also clear that any negative impact from tourism must be prevented.--Publisher's description.
