Event Details

Tourism is a growing sector worldwide. Increasingly, people are looking for outdoor experiences in a natural environment. Well-planned and effectively managed tourism can provide economic benefits and support local communities and regions, while taking into consideration its environmental impacts. The carrying capacity of the respective area should always be considered and visitor impact mitigation techniques should be applied.

Effective tourism management takes into account its current and future economic, social and environmental impacts, moreover, it addresses the needs of visitors as well as local communities.

Please register RSVP for this course.

As part of the five-session online training course “Ranger training on Tourism and Waste management in Protected Areas”, Ukrainian Protected Area staff, NGOs, interest groups and other stakeholders from Ukraine attending a minimum four out of five sessions will receive a certificate issued by the Ukrainian State Environmental Academy of post-graduates and management and the European Wilderness Society.
