About this Unit
In 2013, this unit replaced by 101905 - Indigenous Cultures: A Global Perspective. With reference to examples from around the world, this unit of study aims to introduce students to the complexity of indigenous tourism policy and planning. The Unit is underpinned by an understanding that successful indigenous tourism is informed by and supportive of the needs, cultures and priorities of indigenous peoples. To this end, students are introduced to examples of indigenous tourism as it operates in a range of national and regional contexts and, through this case material, the Unit explores the shifting relationship between indigenous cultural tourism development and social, environmental, economic and cultural sustainability.
