their economic, cultural, scientific, and recreational value. The Ramsar Convention is the intergovernmental treaty that provides the framework for the conservation and wise use of wetlands and their resources. The Convention was adopted in the Iranian city of Ramsar in 1971 and came into force in 1975. Since then, almost 90% of UN member states have become “Contracting Parties” and committed to the Convention’s three pillars: 1.Work towards the wise use of all their wetlands 2.Designate suitable wetlands for the list of Wetlands International Importance and ensure their effective management 3. Cooperate internationally on trans boundary wetlands, shared wetland systems and shared species The Convention uses a broad definition of wetlands. It includes all lakes and rivers, underground aquifers, swamps and marshes, wet grasslands, peatlands, oases, estuaries, deltas and tidal flats, mangroves and other coastal areas, coral reefs, and all human-made sites such as fish ponds, rice paddies, reservoirs and salt pans. 9.12 SUMMARY  There is an increase in animal population in most of the protected areas where ecotourism projects have been launched by the State Governments in India.  It is in fact a successful model that has resolved many critical enduring issues in a very cordial manner. After the IYE All the national parks and wildlife sanctuaries in India have adopted the micro ecotourism projects for strengthening the relationship between man and nature.  Ecotourism projects have provided sufficient opportunities to empower local people participate in the conservation of forest and wildlife. In this lesson, chapter, much focus on the distribution of National Park, wildlife sanctuaries and Marine Park. Periyar National Park, Corbett National Park, Thenmala, Run of Kutch, Gulf to safeguard biodiversity and encourage ecotourism activities, etc  The Indian Forest Act, 1927 from Section 35 to Section 38 gives approval to the State Governments to control forests and lands which are not government property.  Protected areas Includes areas governed by private people, indigenousand local communities or public body. Protected areas can be managed and owned by individuals or group who sign the agreement on long term lease or who buy it.  A marine protected area (MPA) is essentially a space in the ocean where human activities are more strictly regulated than the surrounding waters - similar to parks we 163 CU IDOL SELF LEARNING MATERIAL (SLM)

have on land. These places are given special protections for natural or historic marine resources by local, state, territorial, native, regional, or national authorities. 9.13 KEYWORDS  Protected Area - Protected areas or conservation areas are locations which receive protection because of their recognized natural, ecological or cultural values.  ICCA - Indigenous and Community Conserved Areas  Key Biodiversity Areas -The Key Biodiversity Areas approach helps to identify and designate areas of international importance in terms of biodiversity conservation using globally standardised criteria.  CRC -The Cooperative Research Center  Buffer zone - Buffer zones are areas created to enhance the protection of a specific conservation area  EDC -Eco Development Committees  TEPS- The Thenmala Ecotourism Promotion Society  Topography- the arrangement of the natural and artificial physical features of an area.  LAC - Local Advisory Committee  PPP- public–private partnership. 9.14LEARNING ACTIVITY 1.

Figure8.1 Community Based Tourism Thereisalsoas substantialvarianceindefinitionandapplicationofCBTamongdifferentdestinationsaround the World.DifferentCBT definitionsare providedinthe contentof all thesedefinitions can be summed up as: CBT is a tourism that is planned, developed, owned and managed bythecommunityforthecommunity, guidedbycollectivedecision-making, responsibility,access,ownership and benefits. It is envisioned as a win-win exchange between hosts and guests. Guests gainenjoyment and satisfaction from discovering natural and cultural heritage and wisdom of the destination people whereas the hosts gain heightened awareness and pride as their natural and cultural heritage andwisdomfunction as asourceofeconomicand social well-being. 10.2 EVOLUTION&CONCEPTS Some other sustainable tourism models are used interchangeably with CBT or in combinationwith CBT in academic and practitioner rhetoric. For example, the use of such combined terminologies iscommon in the form of Community-Based Rural Tourism in Latin America and Community-BasedEcotourism in in Asia Although CBT is similar to other sustainable tourism development models in itsgoal to sustain natural and cultural heritage while improving socio-economic conditions for the locals, itisuniqueinprioritizing locals’having controlandpowerin definingthedevelopmentdirection. Sustainability also guides all policies and actions in CBT; the difference, however, is CBT’sbottom-upapproaching outliningand executingtourism developmentplans. OnebasicpremiseofCBTisitsfoundationin“communitydevelopment”asdefinedbytheBrundtland Report, calling for sustainable development by promoting community participation and theprotection and improvement of the quality of life of communities. The emphasis is on the issues ofsustainability, social equity and environmental responsibility, ensuring that the development providesopportunities for people of different incomes and skills, promotes a better quality of life for all, andprotectstheenvironment. 10.3 MEANINGANDDEFINITION OFCBT WWFInternational (2001)A form of tourism “where the local community has substantial control over, and involvement in, its development and management, and a major proportion of the benefits remain within the community.” Dixey (2005)“Tourism owned and/or managed by communities, that is designed to deliver wider community benefitCommunities may own an asset such as lodge but outsource the management to a tourism company.
