Benefits Of Project To Locals
Money earned through local business in tourism can be invested back into local economies to enhance public service and education. The local ripple effect will pool more jobs for locals and open avenues for a new business venture. It will also provide job opportunities to vulnerable groups, women, minorities and youth. Ultimately the activities of responsible development tourism will lead to the protection and preservation of the cultural site.
