ecotourism impact assessments

Ecotourism impact assessments are evaluations that analyze the potential effects of tourism activities on natural environments and local communities. These assessments consider environmental, social, and economic factors, aiming to ensure that tourism promotes conservation and benefits local populations while minimizing harm. They help identify the best practices for sustainable tourism development, safeguard biodiversity, and preserve cultural heritage. By anticipating possible challenges and opportunities, these assessments guide decision-making for responsible tourism that supports both nature and local communities, ensuring that ecotourism remains a positive force for both nature and society.
