Tourism education
Tourism is a vital branch for many countries
due to the positiv impact on the countries
economy with the goods, services and the
opportunities it gives. Recently the ecotour-
ism and the sustainable tourism became
forms of tourism that are in line with the
United Nations Millennium Development-
Goals. Ecotourism attempts to make a low
impact on the environment and local culture,
while helping to generate income, employ-
ment, and the conservation of local ecosys-
tems. This kind of responsible tourism is
both ecologically and culturally sensitive.
