dc.description.abstract | This study addresses the critical connection between Uganda’s protected areas and tourism and estimates the economic impact of tourism on these sites and their surrounding communities. The primary audience of this report is decision-makers such as the ministry of tourism, protected area management authorities, local authorities, and task teams supporting nature-based tourism. In Uganda, where tens of thousands of tourists visit protected areas annually, there is little information on the economic implications of nature-based tourism. This hinders the ability of tourism authorities, protected area managers, and the government to optimize the economic value of protected areas and their associated benefits. | en |
