The document discusses exploring World Heritage Site listing for the Mount Lofty Ranges agrarian landscape in South Australia. Some key points made include:
- UNESCO World Heritage listing of working, evolving agricultural landscapes is rare.
- The Mount Lofty Ranges represents the first and most enduring example of systematic colonization and rural settlement principles in the world.
- World Heritage listing has evolved from technical preservation to an acclaimed global brand that can promote economic development and placemaking.
- A WHS designation of sufficient size could serve as an engine for economic development in the region through heritage tourism and marketing local products.
- The benefits of a potential listing go beyond preservation to include social,

Geotourism, Ecotourism and Regional Development - Challenges and OpportunitiesLeisure Solutions®
Over the past 25 years in Australia, ecotourism has grown in partnership with the development of protected areas such as national parks and reserves, and much of the formal government strategic planning for the growth of nature based tourism generally has been linked to the national park system. However, within other areas of Australia where tourism is well established, ecotourism has found a well supported niche.
Preliminary work undertaken in 2017 in support of the Pre-Aspiring Etheridge UNESCO Global Geopark located in in the Gulf Savannah country Far North Queensland has identified a whole range of issues that will impact on the future of ecotourism and geotourism outside of protected areas. A number of these issues relating to community concerns about the potential impact of tourism on existing industries such as grazing and mining as well as a widespread fear of associated environmental controls has resulted in the geopark initiative being deferred by the proponent, Etheridge Shire Council. Whilst much of this concern can be linked to recent UNESCO involvement in the Great Barrier Reef and Daintree World Heritage Areas, the opposition to tourism development generally has proved an unexpected outcome, particularly as strong support for this project has been shown by other groups particularly national park managers, indigenous communities , two major ecotourism operators, the Savannah Guides Network and by township communities which are looking for new avenues for economic development.
Background to this post. Lot of people believe Eco-Tourism to be tourism activity to benefit from fresh air and good weather. However the actual concept of Eco-Tourism deals with Environmentally responsible travel and visitation to natural areas !
Tourism is one of the world’s fastest growing industries and is a major source of income for many countries. It can have both positive and negative impacts towards the image of the particular destinations tourism image. Sustainable tourism development attempts to find the balance between Environment, Economic and Culture to create an improved quality of life for the host community.

Hidden Gems of Europe - DISCOVERING THE CONTINENT'S BEST-KEPT SECRETSKamil Uğraş TÜRKOĞLU
Europe, continent rich in history, culture, and natural beauty, is often synonymous with famous cities like Paris, Rome, and London. These iconic destinations attract millions of tourists every year, captivating them with their renowned landmarks, vibrant culture, and bustling urban life. However, beyond these well-trodden paths lie countless hidden gems waiting to be discovered. These lesser-known destinations offer unique experiences, authentic encounters, and breathtaking landscapes that often surpass the allure of their famous counterparts.
In "Hidden Gems of Europe," we embark on a journey to uncover these secret spots, exploring the heart and soul of Europe through its quaint villages, charming towns, and secluded natural wonders. This book aims to inspire travelers to look beyond the obvious and venture into the lesser-explored corners of the continent, where true adventure and discovery await.

for the Mount Lofty Ranges agrarian landscape

Council,

3. Can we get it?
Outstanding Universal Value
“South Australia was the first place in the
world to apply the principles of
systematic colonisation, and rural and
township settlement in the Mount Lofty
Ranges is its most enduring expression.”
- Susan Marsden
John Stuart Mill:
• “…the planning of colonies should be
conducted, not with an exclusive view to the
private interests of the first founders, but with
a deliberate regard to the permanent welfare
of the nation afterwards……no plan is
comparable in advantage to that advocated by
Mr Wakefield….”
From top: E.G. Wakefield, J. Bentham and J.S. Mill
5. Why a WHS for the Mount Lofty Ranges?
World Heritage
listing has evolved
from a technical
measure aimed
exclusively at
preservation into an
acclaimed and
globally respected
brand.
6. Motivations matter
Source: Rebanks 2010 analysis of 878 sites
(i) ‘Celebration’ designations see WHS as a celebration of
heritage value;
(ii) ‘SOS’ designations see WHS as an ‘SOS’ to save
heritage;
(iii) ‘Quality Logo/Brand’ sites see the designation for
marketing or branding purposes while
(iv) ‘Place Making’ designations see the listing as a tool to
develop powerful new identities for places.
8. Size Matters
Using WHS as an engine of economic
development requires WHSs of scale. The sites
that the Rebanks study (2010) identified as best
practice were those places that were living
breathing communities, with population and
businesses located in them, by definition meaning
WHSs that are of significant size.
9. WHS as economic driver and placemaking tool
Why is our place unique,
special and globally important?’
• Focus economic
development on uniqueness,
authenticity, a distinct sense
of place, identity and culture.
• WHS as a catalyst to engage
with the rest of the world from
a position of confidence,
selling distinct products and
services at added value
based upon their
provenance.
10. Portovenere & Cinque Terre (inscribed 1997).
Preservation of a
socio- economic way
of life through
investment in the
structures, facilities,
products and branding
to return greater
added value to private
sector producers who
maintain the
agricultural landscape.
In 2009 cooperatives were buying organic lemons from growers for €2.50 per
kilogram, compared with a commodity price of €1.70‐€1.80 for the same product
outside the WHS/national park ‐ a 68% premium Source: Rebanks, 2010
11. The Old and New Towns of Edinburgh (Inscribed
1995)
• Using WHS status to
improve the quality of
life of residents through
developing and
enhancing heritage
assets, and raising the
quality of development
to attract new people to
live, work and invest
there.
12. Bamberg – the market gardener’s city
(Inscribed 1993)
Key destination in the
debate about attracting
higher value visitors to an
existing tourism
destination by using WHS
status as a cultural
tourism brand
(particularly to attract
WHS literate visitors).
13. Unintended consequences

thousands of tourists

14. Do we want it?
Economic Impacts
Source: EconSearch, 2012
• The cost benefit analysis shows strong returns
for three investment scenarios based on
achieving WHS listing
• Recognise that these results are based on high
levels of uncertainty surrounding the economic
outcomes that may be generated by WHS
inscription.
• Nevertheless, the proposed Mount Lofty Ranges
site falls into the category of an under-
recognised region with strong heritage
attributes, a region that is motivated by socio-
economic development and is therefore likely
to benefit significantly from WHS inscription.
17. Do we want it?
Social, environmental and intangible benefits
Source: Rebanks, 2010
18. Will the Character Preservation legislation alone ensure
a sustainable agritourism future?
Continuing loss of productive agricultural land in the region mean
that securing the place of agriculture in the regional landscape and
economy cannot be left to a ‘business as usual’ policy stance.
Evidence from throughout the world tells us that a decisive shift in
public policy and in private behaviour is needed, as are multiple
vehicles to carry that decision through.
19. Environment Protection and Biodiveristy
Conservation (EPBC) Act implications
A thorough investigation by Council planners in
the Mount Lofty Ranges Working Group and
reviewed by DSEWPaC has demonstrated that
the Act does not affect assessment processes
for the vast majority of development
applications. Local rules and planning processes
continue to apply. It is expected however, that
local planning processes will evolve over time to
support the agritourism values of the WHS.
20. Governance model: a work in progress
