Ecotourism, nature conservation, and development

by Aziza Chaouni

Ecotourism is a major source for financing ecological environmental development. The fundamental challenge of this approach is how to unite the conflicting goals of ecotourism and nature conservation. The World Bank has co-financed a model project in Jordan. Landscape architecture took a leading role in the masterplanning. This book documents the results and gives an account of the lessons to be learnt.
