This book was released on 2011 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The socio-economic effects of concession-based tourism on local and regional communities and economies were assessed to better inform the New Zealand Department of Conservation's (DOC's) concession management activity. A tourism inventory, in-depth interviews with concessionaires and visitor surveys were undertaken in 2004-2005 to measure concession tourism activity in Tongariro National Park (TNP), Abel Tasman National Park (ATNP) and Fiordland National Park (FNP). The net economic impact of tourism concessions was four and two times the direct impacts of the concessions themselves for TNP and ATNP, respectively. In contrast, net economic impacts were only 90% of the direct impacts for FNP. TNP contributed $30 million of direct turnover, ATNP contributed $4.6 million and FNP contributed $51 million. For every dollar of turnover generated by the concessions, a further 40 cents, 60 cents and 30 cents circulated in the economy in TNP, ATNP and FNP, respectively. Concessioned tourism was also important to employment. Tongariro concessions generated 450 FTEs (full-time equivalent jobs), each of which created another 0.3 jobs, Abel Tasman's 53 FTEs had the flow-on effect of creating an additional 0.4 jobs per FTE, and Fiordland's concessions produced 320 FTEs, leading to the generation of a further 0.2 jobs per FTE. Factors that influenced the magnitude of the effect of the concessioned product on the visitor itinerary included the composition of the gateway community, features of the region's tourism sector, park management, characteristics of the concession visitor and features of the concessioned product. It is recommended that DOC, local authorities, regional tourism organisations and the tourism industry collaborate to gather data about the role of national parks in the development of gateway communities and the regional tourism sector, and that future research includes data collection on both concession and non-concession visitor use of parks.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Protected areas (PAs) contain biodiversity and ecosystems of high conservation value. In addition, these areas provide a range of benefits, both direct and indirect, to our societies and economies, i.e. so called ecosystem services. These services include, for example, an ecosystem's ability to regulate floods and climate, purify water, secure the pollination of crops, and create opportunities for recreation, culture and tourism. This book offers a comprehensive introduction to the socio-economic benefits of PAs and PA networks and provides step-by-step practical guidance on identifying, assessing and valuing the various ecosystem services and related benefits provided by PAs. It also aims to improve the communication of PA benefits to different stakeholders and the general public. It is shown that identifying and valuing the socio-economic benefits of PAs can be beneficial for several reasons. Demonstrating socio-economic importance of a protected site can significantly increase political and stakeholder support for the site and resolve conflicts between different interest groups. This can lead to positive changes in policies and decision-making. Insights on PA benefits are also needed to identify a combination of actions and land use practices that best support the sustainable and equitable utilisation of these benefits, while retaining a site’s conservation goals. Finally, demonstrating different benefits can help to discover alternative and sustainable sources for financing the management of PAs.
