Event Details

Wilderness and protected areas are facing challenges with visitors and tourism, as more and more people are interested in seeing and experiencing the wild. However, a visitor and recreation plan is required in order to reduce human impact. Therefore, in course of this webinar ‘Wilderness and tourism’, we provide an opportunity to learn about adequate tourism management in Wilderness, that allows to experience solitude and a sense of Wilderness and at the same time aims to minimise human disturbance and modification.
