Research shows high-end tourism in Indonesia fails to empower local people during COVID-19 pandemic

High-end tourism is meant to combat the often unsustainable growth in mass tourism. It attracts fewer tourists who spend more on luxury trips than typical mass tourism experiences. In theory, this reduces environmental impacts while increasing economic benefits. Our latest research in Wakatobi National Park, an area of immense marine biodiversity spread across four main islands in Southeast Sulawesi province, demonstrates the limitations of high-end tourism development. While it may offer some conservation benefits, its inherently high price tag means it caters to the most privileged sectors of society, while the local political elite accrue the profits. Tourism development must do more to focus on providing benefits for communities beyond just financial gains. It should support local communities to increase their skills and knowledge to equip them to be resilient to crises and economic shocks.

5 lessons we ve learned as women in conservation science | Stories

Shauna Mahajan is a senior social scientist committed to developing inclusive and holistic conservation solutions. With an interdisciplinary background in resilience thinking, environment, and development, her work and research focus on the social dimensions of conservation. Gabby Ahmadia, Ph.D., is a director of marine science at WWF focused on conservation in coastal ecosystems and lucky enough to work with colleagues and communities to help conserve some of the most beautiful places on the planet. Despite diversity, equity, and inclusion gaining mainstream attention in conservation, the data shows that we still have a long way to go to make meaningful progress towards creating a truly inclusive conservation science community. But there’s a lot to be hopeful for: the scientific community is increasingly challenging the norms about what a scientist should look like and recognizing the barriers that women in science face. Change is on the horizon.
