• The value of wetlands in ecotourism (PDF 423 KB)

About the report

The purpose of this presentation is to discuss the value of wetlands in ecotourism. In this presentation the term ‘ecotourism’ will be used in a general sense, equivalent to the term ‘nature-based tourism’. Our focus will be on nature-based tourism in the tropical wetlands of the Northern Territory, but parallels can be drawn with tourism ventures in wetlands throughout Australia.
