dc.description.abstract | Angola’s enormous tourism potential has been kept from the world for decades, which the 27-year-long civil war further delayed. And yet, its vast unexplored territory and its underlying need for an economic development paradigm shift places tourism, especially ecotourism, in a privileged position to help the country move away from fossil fuels’ dependency and towards a more diverse economy. The community-based Okavango Wilderness Ecolodge is set within the Cubango-Okavango River Basin that is the lifeline of the world-famous UNESCO World Heritage Okavango Delta—where one of the last strongholds of biodiversity and the ever-expanding world of tourism meet. It intends to provide the tools for a community-focused and conservation-oriented ecolodge strategy for developing countries, capable of empowering communities everywhere to contribute to and benefit from tourism as a means for sustainable development, while protecting biodiversity and raising awareness on the importance of climate resilience. | pt_PT |
