旅游业已成为世界上最大的产业之一，也是一个快速增长的经济部门。亚洲地区吸引了越来越多注重质量的游客，因为它拥有丰富的生物文化/遗产多样性。然而，许多亚洲旅游目的地的多样性和完整性已受到严重侵蚀或不可逆转的破坏，由于考虑不周，计划不周，监管不足的大众旅游和其他人类活动，增加了保护和当地生计之间的冲突。幸运的是，新出现的社区生态文化遗产旅游可以在该区域有效地用于实现可持续发展的目标，结合扶贫旅游的方法。这些办法得到若干国际组织以及《地方21世纪议程》的大力提倡和支持。本文提供了一个广泛的概念框架，这种方法和评估的潜力和限制，发展和实施这些战略在该地区的政策/规划的影响。
Tourism has emerged as one of the world’s largest industries and a fast growing economic sector. The Asian region attracts a growing number of quality-conscious tourists as it is endowed with a rich bio-cultural/heritage diversity. However, the diversity and integrity of many Asian tourist destinations have been severely eroded or irreversibly damaged due to ill-conceived, poorly planned, and under-regulated mass tourism and other human activities, increasing the conflicts between conservation and local livelihoods. Fortunately, the newly emerging community-based eco-cultural heritage tourism (CBECHT) can be effectively used in the region for achieving the objectives of sustainable development by integrating pro-poor tourism approaches. Such approaches are strongly promoted and supported by several international organizations as well as Local Agenda 21. This article provides a broad conceptual framework for this approach and evaluates the potentials and constraints for evolving and implementing such strategies in the region with their policy/planning implications.
