dc.description.abstract | The success of ecotourism depends on socioeconomic factors such as political support, social stability, cultural ties to natural resources, and economic profitability. In some locations, ecotourism has the potential to reduce threats to the environment and to the people who live there by providing alternative ways to use resources and generate income, thus contributing to the wellbeing of people and the conservation of nature. | |
