Developing community-based tourism in Myanmar
Around Asia, hundreds of community based tourism (CBT) programs have been developed by local communities, with support from governments, tour operators and NGOs. Successful CBT inspires tourists, nurtures cross-cultural understanding, creates skills, jobs and income for community members and helps to fund grassroots social and environmental initiatives.
This Manual presents first-hand experiences, tools and lessons learned between 2014 and 2017, implementing the project NTF III Myanmar: Inclusive Tourism focusing on Kayah State.
