World Bank Highlights Nature-Based Tourism’s Role in Economic Growth and Biodiversity Conservation

Nature-based tourism can help countries achieve their development goals while promoting biodiversity conservation. In destinations with rich natural assets but limited economic opportunities, nature-based tourism can create jobs and diversify rural economies1. The World Bank Group’s methodology measures the ripple effect of nature-based tourism spending on local communities, highlighting its potential for economic and environmental benefits.

By fostering nature-based tourism, countries can support local economies, create employment opportunities, and encourage the conservation of natural habitats. This approach not only benefits the environment but also provides a sustainable source of income for communities that rely on natural resources1.
