  • Eco-Tourism in Kerala and Its Importance and Sustainability
    Volume : 3 | Issue : 5 | May 2014 ISSN - 2250-1991 Research Paper Economics ECO-Tourism In Kerala and Its Importance and Sustainability Assistant professor, Post Graduate Department of Economics Dr. Haseena V.A M.E.S Asmabi College, P.Vemballur, Kodunagllur, Thrissur, Kerala Tourism is one of the few sectors where Kerala has clear competitive advantages given its diverse geography in a short space ranging from the Western Ghats covered with dense forests to the backwaters to the Arabian sea. Its ancient rich culture including traditional dance forms and the strong presence of alternative systems of medicine add to its allure. Unfortunately, Kerala is dominated by domestic tourism within the state although foreign tourists arrivals to the state has been growing at a faster rate than national average. The goal in the KPP 2030 is to develop Kerala as an up-market tourism destination with the state being the top destination in terms of number of tourists and revenue among all the Indian states. Sustainable tourism is the mission. This can be achieved by integrating tourism with other parts of the economy like medical and health hubs which will attract more stable tourists over a longer period of time and with higher spending capacity. There will be new elements added to leisure tourism and niche products in tourism will be developed. Infrastructure development is ABSTRACT crucial to achieve this goal. The success of Kerala tourism will be based on the synergy between private and public sectors. The government has taken steps to encourage private investment in tourism, while adhering to the principles and practices of sustainability.
