YHA Kenya Trave Tours & Safaris Responsible Tourism. What is Responsible Tourism? Responsible Tourism is about “making better places for people to live in and better places for people to visit.” Responsible Tourism requires that tour operators, hoteliers, governments, local people and tourists take responsibility, take action to make tourism more sustainable. World Responsible Tourism Day encourages the industry to take responsibility for making tourism more sustainable and demonstrate their responsibility.
How do we practice good responsible tourism. * minimizes negative economic, environmental and social impacts; * generates greater economic benefits for local people and enhances the well-being of host communities, improves working conditions and access to the industry; *involves local people in decisions that affect their lives and life changes; * makes positive contributions to the conservation of natural and cultural heritage, to the maintenance of the world’s diversity; * provides more enjoyable experiences for tourists through more meaningful connections with local people, and a greater understanding of local cultural, social and environmental issues; * provide access for people with disabilities and the disadvantaged; * is culturally sensitive, engenders respect between tourists and hosts, and builds local pride and confidence. Behaviour can be more or less responsible and what is responsible in a particular place depends on upon environment and culture.
