坦桑尼亚的经验

Local Communities and The Tourism Benefits of Natural World Heritage Sites in Africa: A Tanzanian Experience

/ 内容简介Abstract /

因此，以自然风光为主的旅游业成为非洲大陆的主要社会经济支柱之一，特别是东部和南部非洲地区，拥有最高的游客访问量。仅在坦桑尼亚，自然旅游业成为第二大外汇收入来源，其中约80%来自于世界自然遗产地。大量农村人口居住在这些遗产地附近，旅游收益直接或间接地改善了当地人的生计，实现了可持续发展。

坦桑尼亚的旅游政策旨在实现生态可持续性、社会包容性和经济可行性，以减轻当地贫困，尤其是农村地区。在促进世界遗产地的旅游收益向周边农村社区和全国流动的同时，坦桑尼亚也始终致力于推动以遗产地邻近社区为基础的保护工作。

这些政策方针逐步加强了公私合作与城乡社区在旅游业投资方面的伙伴关系，也进一步增加与自然世界遗产地之间的联系。因此，这些社区的社会经济状况比以前更加稳定。本讲座以坦桑尼亚毗邻自然遗产地的社区为例，探讨基于旅游的生计为当地创造的财富，并研究从这些遗产地和非洲其他地方的类似遗产地中获取此类利益的内在联系和复杂性。

The African region boasts of 42 Natural World Heritage sites or 18% of the 231 total global, situated in 36 countries. These sites present a truly iconic symbol of the interaction that the local communities have sustained with them over time immemorial.  These beautiful sites are unimpaired to a casual eye, making them key tourism assets for spearheading both the national economies and the livelihood of local communities.

No wonder, nature-based tourism is one of the main socio-economic pillars on the continent, particularly so in the Eastern and Southern African Region. In the later cases, these sites stand as the topmost visited. In Tanzania in particular, nature-based Tourism is the second major foreign exchange earner, of which about 80% comes from Natural Heritage Sites. Large rural populations reside adjacent these sites, gaining sustainably from improved livelihoods through direct and indirect tourism-based benefits.

In line with this, Tanzania’s Tourism policy seeks to attain ecological sustainability, social acceptability and inclusion as well as economic viability in efforts to alleviate poverty especially amongst the rural poor. However, while facilitating the flow of tourism-based benefits from the World Heritage Sites to the adjacent rural communities and the country at large, Tanzania has all along strived to promote community-based conservation adjacent these sites.  

These policy directions have progressively strengthened public-private-rural community partnerships in tourism investments and linkages with natural World Heritage Sites. Consequently, these local communities have increasingly become more socio-economically secure than before. This presentation explores the tourism-based livelihood enabling fortunes for the local communities living adjacent the natural heritage sites of Tanzania as case examples. It also examines the inherent linkages and complexities related to accrual of such benefits from these and similar sites from elsewhere in Africa.
