welcome

 

...to building research capacity for pro-poor tourism,
a joint project of five universities in South East Asia and Europe.

The aim of the project is to build research capacity to improve tourism´s positive impact on the poor, particularly in the ASEAN region. The partnership includes universities in the UK, Belgium, Indonesia, Lao PDR and Vietnam. Over 24 months the partnership will be evaluating existing research, identifying gaps and holding workshops and exchanges to build capacity in applied research and sharing best practice in research methodology.

The partners are working in teams (of EU and ASEAN partners) to undertake small-scale research projects in Vietnam, Laos and Bali. The teams are investigating established examples of current practise and are developing improved models of good practise in pro-poor tourism.

The outcomes will include conferences, publications, and a web-site, as well as improvements in university curricula.The programme is designed to feed into improvements in pro-poor tourism policy, and to enhance linkages with the aid agencies and tourism industry.
