Resumen
Descripción
The trend toward new tourism niches in
Latin America and the Caribbean (hereafter, LAC) has brought
benefits, but also costs to the region's indigenous
peoples. As the World Bank social and environmental
portfolios in LAC reveal, work with indigenous groups has
frequently favored tourism as a strategy for empowerment. At
the same time, urban, rural development and infrastructure
projects have also increased tourism opportunities,
including visits to indigenous communities. Bank experience
indicates the increasing need for dialogue and greater
understanding of the issues involved in these cases. This En
Breve offers an overview of the concerns generated by
'ethno-tourism' and, through consultation with
three experts who have worked with indigenous groups in
Argentina, Brazil, and Colombia, proposes approaches
recommended reducing negative impacts.
