Summary
This research paper, published by the International Institute for Sustainable Development (IISD) and the IUCN in December 2007, examines the potential for nature-based tourism to support sustainable livelihoods in Laos. It analyzes the growth of the tourism sector, the role of ecotourism, and the socio-economic impacts on local communities, specifically highlighting the challenges of benefit distribution and the influence of regional integration through ASEAN.
Key insights
- Tourism in Laos experienced significant growth between 1990 and 2006, with international arrivals increasing from 14,000 in 1990 to 1.12 million in 2006, and total revenue rising from 2.2 million USD to 173.2 million USD over the same period.
- Ecotourism is viewed as a strategic tool for poverty reduction in Laos, particularly for upland communities where poverty rates can reach 78%, compared to a national average of 54%.
- The distribution of tourism revenue often fails to reach the poorest community members, as benefits are frequently captured by those with existing resources, such as land or capital, or those in leadership positions.
