Tourism And Gats - 5

Research Papers and Case Studies
The first paper by EQUATIONS shows the need for caution in opening up the services sector. The arguments are based on a vision for tourism on the principles of local participation, environmental protection and social justice. The second paper by Marianne Hochuli and Christine Pluss shows why policies of liberalisation and deregulation run counter to effective strategies of poverty alleviation.

EQUATIONS is a research, policy, and advocacy organisation working on tourism and development issues in India. Our work has focused on the economic, environmental, social, cultural, political and administrative impacts of tourism particularly on people living in and around tourism destinations. We collaborate closely with organisations and peoples movements, to influence people-centered forms of tourism & policies that ensure significant local benefits and take into account the negative impacts of an unbridled growth of tourism.
