Environment tourism and development

Abstract

As a prelude to the industrial fair Globe 90, held in Vancouver, Canada, earlier this year, a workshop was conducted in March 1990 to develop an agenda for action on Sustainable Tourism with a view to providing a ‘sustainable tourism strategy’ to be put forward as the tourism industry's contribution to Globe 90. Jonathan Edwards of the Dorset Institute, UK, and Mario Banks, Manager of the Chamber of Commerce, Cayman Islands, describe how the delegates arrived at a suitable agenda for economic, environmental and social sustainability.
