Slide 5 - 5 Tourism and Poverty Reduction Tourism stimulates economic growth both at the national and local levels and promotes the growth of the agricultural, industrial and service sectors. Tourism provides a wide range of employment opportunities easily accessible by the poor. Tourism businesses and tourists purchase goods and services directly from the poor or enterprises employing the poor. This creates opportunities for micro, small and medium-sized enterprises in which the poor can participate. International and domestic tourism spreads development to poor regions and remote rural areas of a country that may not have benefited from other types of economic development. The development of tourism infrastructure can benefit the livelihood of the poor through improvement in tourism-linked service sectors, including transport and communications, water supply, energy and health services.

Slide 15 - 15 Summary of Benefits Job creation. - 300 jobs created in Luang Namtha. - Over 75% were in extreme poverty. - Number of women employed : 140. Increase in income levels. - Target villages increased cash income by up to 35%. Access to medical services improved. Language skills improved. Solid waste management improved.

Slide 16 - 16 Lessons Learned Lessons learned: Criteria must be applied in the selection of target villages. - poorest villages + tourist attractions. - easy to access. - located within a tourist circuit. - market demand for the “product” exists. - villagers should be interested in developing tourism. - safety should be a consideration. - a measurable link between tourism, heritage conservation and economic development. Not all the villages can get benefits and be involved in tourism activities, especially those where there are no home-stay or community lodges, or are located far from tourist sites.
Slide 17 - 17 Lessons learned: Pro-poor tourism development should take a two-pronged approach. - Develop community-based tourism circuits in villages where there are potential tourist attractions (trekking, home stay, etc.). - Research and develop supply chains between production villages and tourist markets.
Slide 18 - 18 Lessons learned: - Villages that host tourists overnight gain the greatest benefits from CBT, but income might not be distributed widely. - Encourage villages to participate from the beginning in the planning process of CBT development at the village level (design of tours). - Ensure that rotational service roster is followed closely to allow everyone a fair chance at gaining income from tourists. - Allow poorest families priority access to village development funds in order to help them to integrate into home stay rotations. - Establish a village based ecotourism committee with a revolving leadership that includes women. - Build tourist facilities and small scale infrastructure facilities such as community lodge, toilets, viewing points, rest area, information board, cultural centre, and ethnic minority markets. - Cooperation with the private sector for marketing CBT products and maintenance of community lodges and trekking trails.
