ECO TOURISM

Twenty seven nation-members of the World Tourism Organisation in the Asia-Pacific region and several other government and non-governmental bodies ratified the Male Declaration at the Asia Pacific Tourism Minister's Conference in Maldives recently. The participants pledged to foster awareness for environmental ethics among consumers, conservation and sustainable use of natural resources, as well as involvement of communities in eco-tourism, in tune with the Rio Declaration.
