Using KwaZulu-Natal in South Africa as a case study, it highlights both the benefits, and trade-offs I promoting, an managing sustainable nature-tourism development, and it assesses how policy can enhance nature tourism's contribution to economic growth, poverty reduction, and conservation. The book's contributors explore three key issues. First, they consider the importance of moving beyond development of a wildlife industry, to the creation of a true nature tourism economy, that supports biodiversity conservation. Second, they explore the role of the private sector in contributing to equitable development, and job creation, while generating conservation finance. Third, they consider alternative pricing, and other market mechanisms that can help make nature tourism more viable, and growth-oriented. Ultimately, the authors argue, economic development, equity, and conservation objectives can be balanced.en-USCC BY 3.0 IGOECO-TOURISMENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTIONBIODIVERSITY CONSERVATIONSUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENTCASE STUDIESPOLICY FRAMEWORKPOLICY PLANNINGNATURAL RESOURCE CONSERVATIONECONOMIC GROWTHPOVERTY REDUCTIONWILDLIFE HABITATSMARKET ORIENTATIONECONOMIC OUTLOOKEQUITY OBJECTIVESJOB CREATIONFINANCIAL LEVERAGEPRICING POLICIES OF RESOURCESMARKET PLANNING ECO-TOURISMENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTIONBIODIVERSITY CONSERVATIONSUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENTCASE STUDIESPOLICY FRAMEWORKPOLICY PLANNINGNATURAL RESOURCE CONSERVATIONECONOMIC GROWTHPOVERTY REDUCTIONWILDLIFE HABITATSMARKET ORIENTATIONECONOMIC OUTLOOKEQUITY OBJECTIVESJOB CREATIONFINANCIAL LEVERAGEPRICING POLICIES OF RESOURCESMARKET PLANNINGACCOMMODATION FACILITIESANIMALANIMALSBAYBEACHBIODIVERSITY CONSERVATIONBIODIVERSITY RESOURCESBIOLOGICAL RESOURCESBIRDBLACK RHINOBREEDINGBUFFALOCAMPSCAMPSITESCASH INCOMECATTLECHEETAHSCHOICE MODELCOASTAL WATERSCOMMERCIAL USESCOMMON SPECIESCOMMUNAL LANDSCONSERVANCYCONSERVANCY MOVEMENTCONSERVATIONCONSERVATION ACTIVITIESCONSERVATION AREASCONSERVATION CORPORATIONCONSERVATION FINANCECONSERVATION MANAGEMENTCONSERVATION OBJECTIVESCONSERVATION OF BIODIVERSITYCONTINGENT VALUATIONDATA COLLECTIONDATA SETSDAY VISITORSDEMAND FOR WILDLIFEDESTINATIONSDETERMINANTDIVERSITY OF SPECIESDOMESTIC TOURISMDOMESTIC TOURISM MARKETDOMESTIC VISITORSECOLOGICAL FOOTPRINTECOLOGYECONOMIC BENEFITSECONOMIC GROWTHECOSYSTEMECOTOURISMELEPHANTFENCESFLATSFOREIGN TOURISTSFOREIGN VISITORSGAME FARMSGAME RESERVESGENETICGEOGRAPHIC INFORMATIONGEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION SYSTEMHISTORIC ROLEHOTELSHUNTERSHUNTINGINTERNATIONAL TOURISMINTERNATIONAL VISITORISSUESLAND AREALAND MANAGEMENTLAND USELAND USESLEATHERBACKLEATHERBACK SEA TURTLELEOPARDLIONLIVESTOCKLOCAL COMMUNITIESLOCAL TOURISMLODGINGMAMMAL SPECIESNATIONAL PARKNATURAL AREASNATURAL ECOSYSTEMSNATURAL RESOURCENATURAL RESOURCE BASENATURE CONSERVATIONNATURE RESERVESNATURE TOURISMNATURE TOURISM DEVELOPMENTOVERSEAS TOURISTSOVERSEAS VISITORSPARKSPOOR TOURISMPREDATIONPREFERENCESPRIVATE GAME RESERVEPRIVATE RESERVESPROTECTED AREASRANCHERSRANCHESRANGESRECREATIONREPTILEREPTILE SPECIESRESEARCH PROJECTRESPECT TO NATURERESTAURANTSRESTORATIONRHINOSAFARISSALE OF WILDLIFESAMPLE SIZESET ASIDESPECIES PROTECTIONSTREAMSSTUDY AREASUSTAINABILITYSUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENTSUSTAINABLE TOURISMTOUR OPERATORSTOURISM ACTIVITIESTOURISM ASSETSTOURISM AUTHORITYTOURISM BUSINESSTOURISM DEMANDTOURISM ECONOMYTOURISM EMPLOYMENTTOURISM ENTERPRISESTOURISM IMPACTTOURISM INDUSTRYTOURISM MARKETTOURISM OPERATIONSTOURISM OPPORTUNITIESTOURISM PRODUCTTOURISM RECEIPTSTOURISM SECTORTOURISM SERVICESTOURISM TRADETOURISTTOURIST ACCOMMODATIONTOURIST ACTIVITYTOURIST ATTRACTIONSTOURIST DESTINATIONTOURIST EXPENDITURETOURIST INDUSTRYTOURIST SERVICESTOURISTSTOURSTRAVEL COST METHODTRAVEL COSTSTRAVEL EXPENDITURESTRAVEL TIMETRIPVARIETYVEGETATIONVISITORVISITOR SURVEYSVISITORSWETLANDWETLANDSWHITE RHINOSWILDLIFEWILDLIFE AREASWILDLIFE CONSERVATIONWILDLIFE INDUSTRYWILDLIFE MANAGEMENTWILDLIFE POPULATIONSWILDLIFE RESERVESWILDLIFE VIEWINGWORLD HERITAGEWorld Bank10.1596/0-8213-5350-0
