The document discusses the principles and meaning of community-based tourism (CBT). It begins by outlining the underlying ideas of CBT, including how globalization is impacting local communities and how CBT can be a tool for community development. It then defines CBT, differentiates it from other forms of tourism like ecotourism and short visits, and discusses its key elements. Specifically, it notes that CBT aims to strengthen community participation and distribution of benefits to improve quality of life. It emphasizes that CBT must be developed and managed by the community to truly achieve its goals.
This document discusses community-based ecotourism (CBET) projects in Himachal Pradesh, India. It outlines 6 main results areas of the projects: 1) initiation, research, and market analysis; 2) community institution building and awareness generation; 3) skill building for livelihoods; 4) marketing of tourism products; 5) certification, policy, and regulation; and 6) documentation and reporting. Under each result area, it provides details on specific activities, such as forming tourism committees, providing trainings to guides, organizing events to promote handicrafts and angling, and certifying homestays and guides. The overall goal is to support local communities through sustainable tourism development and conservation efforts.
The document discusses the evolution of tourism planning since World War 2 from a state-oriented approach to a more regional and systems-based approach. It also discusses how tourism can benefit local communities economically and socially if planned carefully, but uncontrolled development can lead to false expectations. Finally, it stresses the importance of community involvement in tourism planning through various consultation methods to develop robust plans that consider local impacts and create recognizable tourism destinations.
Some Proposed Models for Successful Community Based TourismRashidul Hasan
Community-based tourism (CBT) refers to tourism activities or enterprises that are owned and managed by the local community. CBT aims to involve local communities in tourism development by giving them ownership and control over projects and retaining a major portion of earnings. It can promote sustainable development by bringing economic benefits to communities while conserving the environment and local culture. The document discusses why CBT is important, providing examples of how communities in countries like Bangladesh can benefit from CBT by developing homestays, restaurants, handicrafts, and other tourism services and products. It outlines steps for communities to assess their tourism potential and successfully implement CBT projects.

This document discusses community-based tourism (CBT) and its viability in Bangladesh. It summarizes that while CBT aims to economically benefit local communities and protect tourism assets, many CBT projects have failed due to lack of market access, funding, and community involvement. The document proposes three models of CBT based on the relationship between tourists, communities, and attractions. Model 3, which combines community skills/offers and natural/cultural attractions, is presented as having the most potential for success by making the community the host. An example of a potentially successful CBT project in Bangladesh using this model is discussed.
Tourism an oppurtunity for community developmentAbby Varghese
Tourism can benefit local communities in several ways if managed properly. Economically, tourism creates many direct and indirect jobs for local communities, increases income and revenue, and leads to infrastructure development. Socially, tourism improves quality of life for host communities through facilities, healthcare, and preserving cultural traditions. It also culturally benefits visitors by enhancing appreciation of other cultures. Environmentally, tourism contributes to conservation by directly funding protected areas and raising environmental awareness, as natural attractions must be preserved to keep the tourism industry viable. Overall, tourism can drive community development when revenues support local communities and priorities.

Abstract
Urbanisation often goes hand in hand with a rise in urban violence and crime that manifests in terms of street harassment of women and girls, stalking, sexual violence, blackmailing and extortion rackets. Children and women are seen as soft spots who can be victimized by predators. One such incident in the city is enough and the feeling of insecurity is spread like wild fire. It not only frightens girls and women, it controls every act they consider doing then onwards (UN Women, 2015).
Smart cities have to be Safe cities. Town planners, policy makers and budget experts need to do gender budgeting to ensure women-friendly civic infrastructure- water, sanitation, health care, safe transport, public toilets, helplines, skill development for crisis management and, safety at work place. While making budgets for social defense services, consideration must be given to safety of girls and women in schools and colleges in terms of prevention of child sexual abuse through public education and counselling facilities, separate toilets for girls and boys in schools, legal literacy on POCSO Act, 2012 and Prevention of Sexual Harassment Workplace Act, 2013. Provision must be made to have special cells in the police department to take action against display of pornographic images, SMS messages, cybercrimes that victimize young girls at public places or in public transport- buses, local trains, rickshaws and taxis.

Charles Landry : Creativity, Culture & the City: A question of interconnectionforumdavignon
The document discusses the relationship between creativity, culture, and city development. It argues that creativity has become a primary asset for cities as human imagination and skills become more important than physical resources. Creativity legitimized in the arts is spreading to other fields to drive innovation. Most cities need economic renewal and attracting talent requires appealing culture and vibrancy. The creative economy of music, media, and design contributes significantly to urban economies and identity. However, using culture strategically requires an art, not just a formula. It works best when enhancing local culture and involving citizens.
A model to play with that explores the relationship between creativity, culture and heritage, particularly looking at the role of cultural funding organisations, such as Arts Council England
Heritage tourism in India remains largely unexplored territory. There are significant opportunities to expand heritage tourism given India's rich cultural heritage and the economic benefits it can provide.

Chapter 7 Community Approach to Tourism Planning (Tourism Planning and Develo...Md Shaifullar Rabbi
Community-based tourism involves local residents inviting tourists to visit their communities. Residents earn income by managing land and providing services to tourists. Part of the income is set aside for community projects. This allows communities to benefit economically while celebrating their culture. The government plays an important role in community-based tourism by facilitating tourism development, providing training and motivating business growth. Communities are able to improve standards of living and preserve their culture through community-based tourism.
Cultural planning is a community-wide process that involves assessing local cultural resources and needs, setting goals for cultural development, and implementing plans to address needs and opportunities.

It allows communities to participate in the global economy through activities like homestays and artisan goods, generating income while maintaining their way of life. CBT decreases poverty by increasing income and providing skills and knowledge for decision-making. Successful CBT models work with existing community initiatives, employ local residents, and maximize local economic benefits. The principles of CBT include respecting local identity, customs, environment, and giving local communities control over tourism decisions and benefits.
