18. ECO-TOURISM
• Ecotourism is a type of tourism that involves visiting natural regions
responsibly (such as using environmentally friendly transportation),
preserving the environment, and enhancing the locals’ quality of life.
• The goal of ecotourism may include educating tourists, raising money for
ecological preservation, directly promoting the political and economic
empowerment of local populations, and fostering respect for various cultures
and human rights.
• Environmentalists have viewed ecotourism as a vital activity since the 1980s
in order for future generations to visit places that have mostly escaped human
influence. With an eye toward ecological conservation, ecotourism may
concentrate on educating visitors on local habitats and natural surroundings.
• Some people include creating economic possibilities that make protecting
natural resources financially feasible as part of the definition of ecotourism.
19. IMPORTANCE OF
ECOTOURISM IN PAKISTAN
• Ecotourism has several advantages, as it is a means of increasing employment
prospects economically. Additionally, it improves lives because as more
people travel, there is a greater demand for hotels and motels. This then leads
to more opportunities for employment.
• In short, eco-tourism enables nations and communities to develop their
economies without endangering the environment. This leads to tourists
enjoying untainted locations and the local wildlife flourishing.
• The provision of social services, the commercialization of culture and art, the
revitalization of customs and art forms, the preservation of heritage, and the
preservation of local culture are a few examples of this positive social
influence.
• Ecotourism also contributes to the preservation of pristine areas and natural
habitats. It emphasises untainted, unspoiled natural settings and promotes
environmental and cultural awareness.
20. STEPS TAKEN BY PAKISTAN GOVT
TO PROMOTE ECO TOURISM
The current administration in Pakistan has established a number of initiatives.
This is done to encourage sustainable tourism in the nation after becoming aware
of environmental degradation and climate change.
• These range from the Hunza single-use plastic ban to the Kaghan Valley’s
anti-encroachment campaign. Additionally, the current administration has
started plantation efforts in all significant provincial capitals, in addition to the
nationwide One Billion Tree Tsunami Initiative.
• Additionally, the government is prepared to launch programmes to counteract
the effects of environmental degradation.
• A thorough system of patents has been put in place to guarantee that the
animal population is not harmed due to hunting, a hobby that is appreciated by
both locals and visitors from other countries.
• Locals are employed and paid a fixed wage for their work through this patent
system. Thus, hunting activities are also controlled in this manner while also
providing locals with employment opportunities.
The number of tourists travelling to Pakistan’s northern regions has risen
dramatically over the years. Therefore, reforms must be continuously updated in
order to grow the base of this business and make it sustainable.
21. CONFERENCE ROOM
Conference Requirements
Conferences, meetings, and assemblies are an important part of Government
operations. Since there is no established standard suggesting the number of
conference rooms based on the number of people, the needs will vary widely
among agencies or agency components, depending largely on the nature of their
work. Whenever possible, the establishment of conference rooms should be based
on need established from past records and experience, rather than on anticipated
needs . Unnecessary conference space is often allowed because planning is not
based on such records of demonstrated need . The space planner should always
evaluate the utilization of existing conference rooms before recommending others
(Fig . 3) .
22. CONFERENCE ROOM
Location of Conference Rooms
The conference room should be centrally located to the users. Interior space, which
is not the most desirable for office purposes, is well suited for conference use . This
location eliminates outside distraction and the need for window coverings during
visual presentations . Access to conference rooms should be through corridors or
through reception areas .
Sizes of Conference Rooms
Conference rooms should be designed to accommodate average but not maximum
attendance. Extra chairs can be used to achieve additional seating .
See illustrations of preferred layout of conference rooms of various sizes .
