Implications of the Inclusive Pro-Poor Tourism Planning in Uganda for Strategic Planning for Community-Based Tourism Development in Nigeria

Many Nigerians are unemployed and live in extreme poverty. The Nigerian government has therefore identified tourism as one of the promising sectors in its efforts to diversify the economy from the oil sector. CBT which is a kind of tourism that encourages environmental, social, cultural, and economic sustainability in communities could be a good model for addressing the socio-economic challenges confronting Nigeria. Based on literature derived from JSTOR, Google Scholar, and Emerald, this chapter draws implications from the inclusive pro-poor tourism planning in Uganda for CBT development in Nigeria.

Towards a tourism industry turnaround: the need for a new metric of social success

PurposeThis review highlights the need for a tourism industry turnaround combining changes in its governance and in its social success metric.Design/methodology/approachAlthough debate was ongoing before the pandemic with the sustainability approach as the main reference, the crisis caused by the SARS-CoV-2 has multiplied and amplified the voices calling for change in order to counteract the inertia of a return to the pre-pandemic “business as usual” scenario.FindingsThis review led to a proposal that combines a tourism governance framework and its principles, with a conceptualisation of social success and guidelines for building a metric for its measurement.Originality/valueThis resides mainly in a transition from a public–private partnerships (3Ps) model to a new scheme of public–private–people partnership (4Ps). The P for “people” represents the need for an alliance with society to contribute to the recovery and transformation that the tourism industry is currently experiencing. In this process, local communities should be empowered to play an active role in it. In the proposal elaborated, host communities are the focus of its conceptual architecture. To-date, analysis of the application of the 4Ps model to tourism is almost unexplored, despite the significant practical implications of a power re-balancing in decisions related to tourism planning and development. In addition, a social success-driven metric supported at the institutional level will contribute to redefining priorities in tourism destinations'/companies' strategies.

Stages of Rural Transformation in the National Strategic Tourism Area of Borobudur

The Borobudur area has grown into a world-class tourist destination. With the existence of Borobudur, Mendut, and Pawon temples, the area was appointed as National Strategic Tourism Area (NSTA). The condition influences the villages surrounding it. Borobudur village, Wanurejo, and Candirejo have developed into alternative tourist villages. During their development, these villages have undergone several transformation stages, which are interesting for further observation. In this background, the study aims to identify the transformation stages of the tourist villages in the Borobudur area, from the beginning as a people settlement to become tourist villages, and what causes the development of these stages. This study used a multiple-case study method with diachronic time series analysis, with three village units of analysis: Borobudur, Candirejo, and Wanurejo. Therefore, it will produce the stages of the village's transformation, especially, those related to tourism activities in the Borobudur area. It is expected that the results of this research will provide tourism development guidelines at each stage of the transformation of tourism villages so that they can be the basic for proper tourism planning for the government in rural tourism, especially in the development of tourism villages in NSTA. In addition, it can also be the basic of a scientific approach in researching the development of tourist areas, especially tourism village.

Community Participation in Tourism Planning at Majete Wildlife Reserve, Malawi

This research assessed the local community's participation in protected area-based tourism planning at Majete Wildlife Reserve in Malawi. The assessment was based on the participatory planning elements from the community participation framework for protected area-based tourism planning. A qualitative research approach was applied, and both secondary and primary data sources were used. Content analysis was used to analyse the data. Results show that the reserve has a system that allows continuous local community participation in the planning process, with financial resources committed to support the process. Local people are represented by independent community-based organisations and traditional leaders during the planning processes. But the local communities have limited access to tourism information and tourism planning experts. The reserve also lacks an appropriate decision-making structure that can facilitate efficient flow of management decisions to local communities. There is need to empower local people and regard them as partners in the tourism planning processes so that they can influence decisions.

TINJAUAN LITERATUR SISTEMATIS TERHADAP PEMBANGUNAN KEPARIWISATAAN YANG BERKELANJUTAN

This study aims to understand the concept of sustainable tourism as an effort to reduce friction that often occurs in every level of society caused by the existence of a tourism industry that is not environmentally friendly. Some of the obstacles that are often faced by people who are in direct contact with tourism activities are health, economic and environmental problems. However, this problem has not been actively responded by academics with a comparison of the case literature. The majority of research only discusses implementation and does not take a comparative perspective between countries. This paper presents a new perspective through a systematic literature review by filtering and visualizing articles in reputable journals. To provide an overview of the direction of the concept of tourism from various countries. It was found that not all tourism activities get positive things for all communities, there is friction in every layer of society and causes various conflicts that cannot be denied due to tourism development that does not apply the principles of development. In tourism planning, it is necessary to understand the needs on many sides, understand that tourism covers a very broad aspect and sustainable tourism plans as a concept of spatial planning activities are not only related to accommodation needs, dressing tourist objects or building imaginary objects, but must be an integrated unit with a well-thought-out and measurable plan.

The tourism industry is one industry that will not run out and will continue to grow. The Indonesian government realizes that the tourism industry is one of the industries that contributes to national development. The existence of tourism as an industry also brings negative impacts.

The last few years the issue of sustainable tourism has increased amid the negative impacts felt almost in most tourist attractions, especially cultural heritage-based attractions. Through the concept of sustainable tourism, cultural heritage is not just a tool for simple business practices that only attracts tourists who come to visit and then earn foreign exchange, but rather how this cultural heritage can contribute to environmental quality (saujana culture); public welfare; national and regional economy; increasing scientific insight; and the preservation of cultural heritage itself.
