Book Synergie Entre Tourisme Et Culture Pour Un D  veloppement Durable

Download or read book Synergie Entre Tourisme Et Culture Pour Un D veloppement Durable written by KAMADEU-B. and published by Omniscriptum. This book was released on 2011-08 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Les recherches visant à optimiser l'apport des secteurs culturel et touristique constituent des axes majeurs pour le développement durable dans plusieurs pays.Ces axes de développement durable au Cameroun pourraient ètre considérés de dossier facile à aborder. Tel n'est pas le cas, car à partir de l'analyse des potentialités existant à savoir: la diversité ethnique, les richesses naturelles, le patrimoine culturel riche et diversifié, l'ouverture sur l'océan atlantique, l'état des lieux du niveau de développement au Cameroun laisse ressortir une totale ambigüité entre les richesses naturelles et le niveau de vie des populations, confirmé en 2010 par un taux de pauvreté affiché. Face à cette situation qui persiste, le gouvernement camerounais a présenté sa vision à long terme dans le Document de Stratégie pour la Croissance et l'Emploi, délaissant un peu, la spécificité du patrimoine culturel et naturel existant, mais annonçant tout de mème un objectif en arrivées de touristes, de 3500 000 pour 2025. Ce travail intervenant dans ce contexte, analyse la situation des secteurs culturel et touristique, tout en proposant des solutions réalistes pour le développement durable au Cameroun.

Book La Cara  be  donn  es environnementales

Download or read book La Cara be donn es environnementales written by and published by KARTHALA Editions. This book was released on 2006 with total page 478 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A l'interface des continents nord et sud américains, la Caraïbe se caractérise par de grandes disparités sociétales et biologiques. A la pluralité des environnements physiques correspond une diversité floristique, faunistique, écosystémique et paysagère. Ressource primordiale pour les Amérindiens, les écosystèmes terrestres et marins sont aujourd'hui à l'intersection d'intérêts divers relevant de l'économique et du culturel ou encore de l'aménagement territorial. Les spécificités écologiques, qui sont fonction des différentes terres caribéennes, sont à la base d'usages nouveaux susceptibles de participer au développement économique, par exemple le tourisme. A cette histoire singulière, façonnée par l'action des hommes, s'ajoutent les incommodités naturelles telluriques et atmosphériques, dont les effets directs et indirects ont érigé certaines composantes de cette partie de la biosphère en terre à risques. Les nuisances de toutes sortes, inhérentes au fonctionnement de ces sociétés, sont des freins au développement maîtrisé ou soutenable. Pour l'essentiel, les économies relèvent des propriétés du mal-développement et peuvent entraîner, dans des cas extrêmes, un chaos politique et social. Les conséquences pour les milieux biophysiques sont souvent graves et s'apparentent à un écocide (Haïti par exemple). Le but premier de ce numéro de Terres d'Amérique est d'explorer les différentes facettes du fonctionnement des sociétés caribéennes ainsi que leurs dynamiques d'interface au regard des environnements physiques et biologiques.

Book Patrimoine  tourisme  environnement et d  veloppement durable

Download or read book Patrimoine tourisme environnement et d veloppement durable written by and published by KARTHALA Editions. This book was released on 2010 with total page 446 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cet ouvrage, qui fait suite au volume six de la même série, sur le thème "Patrimoine culturel et tourisme alternatif" s'inscrit dans la continuité de la réflexion précédemment initiée, aux plans à la fois matériel, en appréhendant les composantes du patrimoine naturel au-delà du seul patrimoine culturel, et spatial, en accueillant les contributions originales et inédites d'auteurs d'Amérique latine (Mexique), du Maghreb (Maroc), du Proche-Orient (Jordanie), d'Asie (Malaisie) et d'Océanie (Polynésie française). Il s'agit en l'occurrence, à travers des regards croisés et souvent complémentaires, d'approfondir et de diversifier les recherches et le premier panel d'études fondées sur la dynamique et la prospective du double constat des impacts socio-économiques du tourisme sur les composantes patrimoniales de l'environnement, et, en sens inverse, de l'attrait déterminant des ressources d'un patrimoine dûment valorisé sur la demande et l'offre touristiques. Les études présentées procèdent d'une démarche pluridisciplinaire, qui explore les différents volets politique, économique, juridique, socio-culturel, de la protection, de la conservation et de la valorisation de ressources patrimoniales plus ou moins aisément (ré)appropriées par les populations et/ou les communautés locales, face à l'emprise du droit et des politiques étatiques, dans le cadre d'une gestion participative et en partie intégrée répondant aux exigences complémentaires et multiples d'un développement, touristique en particulier, viable et durable. Entre questionnements et réponses, ce second volet d'inventaire entend apporter une contribution constructive et opérationnelle à l'exploration de la relation dialectique déterminante entre tourisme et patrimoine.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle.

Book World Heritage and Sustainable Development

Download or read book World Heritage and Sustainable Development written by Peter Bille Larsen and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-07-03 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2015, the General Assembly of State Parties to the World Heritage Convention passed a ground-breaking Sustainable Development policy that seeks to bring the World Heritage system into line with the UN’s sustainable development agenda (UNESCO 2015). World Heritage and Sustainable Development provides a broad overview of the process that brought about the new policy and the implications of its enactment. The book is divided into four parts. Part I puts the policy in its historical and theoretical context, and Part II offers an analysis of the four policy dimensions on which the policy is based – environmental sustainability, inclusive social development, inclusive economic development and the fostering of peace and security. Part III presents perspectives from IUCN, ICOMOS and ICCROM – the three Advisory Bodies to the World Heritage Committee, and Part IV offers ‘case study’ perspectives on the practical implications of the policy. Contributions come from a wide range of experienced heritage professionals and practitioners who offer both ‘inside’ perspectives on the evolution of the policy and ‘outside’ perspectives on its implications. Combined, they present and analyse the main ideas, debates and implications of the policy change. This book is key reading for all heritage professionals interested in developing a better understanding of the new Sustainable Development policy. It is also essential reading for scholars and students working in the area.

Book Cambridge Handbook of Engineering Education Research

Download or read book Cambridge Handbook of Engineering Education Research written by Aditya Johri and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2014-02-10 with total page 1124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Cambridge Handbook of Engineering Education Research is the critical reference source for the growing field of engineering education research, featuring the work of world luminaries writing to define and inform this emerging field. The Handbook draws extensively on contemporary research in the learning sciences, examining how technology affects learners and learning environments, and the role of social context in learning. Since a landmark issue of the Journal of Engineering Education (2005), in which senior scholars argued for a stronger theoretical and empirically driven agenda, engineering education has quickly emerged as a research-driven field increasing in both theoretical and empirical work drawing on many social science disciplines, disciplinary engineering knowledge, and computing. The Handbook is based on the research agenda from a series of interdisciplinary colloquia funded by the US National Science Foundation and published in the Journal of Engineering Education in October 2006.
