Tax revenue derived from tourism activities can be used to improve education, health and infrastructure development, all of which are important for poverty alleviation.

The tourism development models which are presented place great importance on sustainable tourism and pro-poor tourism. While the most desirable goal focus on the benefits of tourism and its positive impact, it is also clear that any negative impact from tourism must be prevented.--Publisher description |
