Ecotourism Development Supporting Biodiversity Conservation In Pangandaran West of Java Indonesia

The World Tourism Organization (UNWTO) has been supporting the counties of Asia that were affected by the tsunami in Desember 2004. UNTWO has joined forces with the Government of Germany to provide a range of consultancy and advisory support in the field of biodiversity and tourism development following the Guidelines on Biodiversity and Tourism Develompment of The Convention on Biological Deversity (CBD). Indonesia is one of the target countries for this program. The Indinesia Government has agreed to cooperate with UNTWO in the framework of a project in Local Gevernment Kabupaten Ciamis (West of Java Province). The project aims to build sustainable tourism practice the model site ecotourism in Natural Recreation Park Pangandaran. It shall provide these communities with the expertise to develop touris in a sustainable manner giving special emphasis to the conservation of biodiversity and risk prevention though intact function ecosystem.
Pangandaran, a tourism destination area located in the southern tip of West Jave, is famous amongst beach lovers. Its long stripe of sandy beach is inviting for people who want to sit around, enjoy the horizon of Hindia/Indonesia Ocean, feel the sea breeze, watching both sunrise (from the Each beach). Nevertheless, Pangandaran has so much more than that. Its Pananjug Nature Reserve is conservation area is the habitat of rare Rafflesia patma, Bos javanicus, and many troical flora fauna. Pangandaran community is culturally dominated by bith Javanese and Sundanese, which create a rich cultural mixture in people daily life.
However, tourism have developed rather spontaneously, which in some area had damaged ecosystems and might potentially reduce environmental functions. Poor Solid waste management polluting drainage canals, leakage of domestic waste into water bodies thus polluting sea and poisoning marine biota, continuous violation of conservation area such as wood and shell collecting are only the most visible problems. Irresponsible tourism has greatly increase the natural ris prevention potential of imtact ecosystem, hus increasing potential of more devastating impact of natural disaster.
In July 2006, Pangandaran was saverely hit by tsunami couse by a 6,8 Richter earthquake. It has damaged more than 2000 houses, 5800 boats, and 41 home industries. About 15000 – 20000 employment was directly affected (Bappeda, 2006), therefore many people have temporally lost a significant source of income. Pangandaran environment have olso severely damaged, such as coral reef coverage which remains only about 10 % after the tsunami. Yet, after the tsunami Pangandaran faces larger challenge in rehabilitation and reconstruction. Right after, recovery aid program over flow Pangan-daran particularly in provision of fisherman boats, wave breakers, and infrastructure; unfortunately many are overlapped, ignorance to actual demand, and without assessment on environmental, economical, and social impact. On the other side, after two years of the disaster, tourism has starter to recover, yet still with very little attention to responsible tourism. With the current environmental capacity – greatly reduced by the tsunami and continous exploitation bay human – now can Pangandaran sustain its nature and biodiversity ? How can Pangandaran sustain its tourism. How can Pangandaran sustain its livelyhold, people welfare, and its life ?

UNTWO, Ministry of Culture and Tourism, Local Government of West Java and Kabupaten Ciamis, together and supported by constant participation fro local stakeholders have been trying to initiate planning and implementation of more sustainable tourism by linking tourism and biodiversity, development for ecotourism condition. Its possible and inevitable to take care of Pangandaran; to conserve its natural assets and biodiversity and to revitalize its culture, for tourism and ecotourism developmet and later for economic welfare of local people in the future.

Ecotourism Guidelines For Responsible Travelers

The conscious attitude, action, participation and interaction on the part of the individual traveler directly affect the outcome for all involved. As a thoughtful and responsible traveler there are several things you can do before, during and after your journey to ensure the experience is in line with the values of “ecotourism” and minimize your infact on the host country. It is far easier to simply go on vacation as an uniformed tourist but making the choice to be an informed traveler can have far reaching impact on the world around us. The more you put into you trip the more you will get out of it. The following is code of conduct for responsible travelers.

1. Prepare for your trip
Educate yourself about your destination for ecotourism. Be on the lookout for news and current events about the area for ecotourism. Learn about local history, customs and culture as well as vital ecosystems. Learn at least the basic of the local language. A simple hello, please or thank you goes a long way. Approach travel with the desire to learn rather than just observe.
2. Respect local traditions and etiquette
Wear clothing that is accepted by the local culture for ecotourism. Be aware of people’s sensitivity to being photographed ; always ask first. Obseve local customs for ecotourism. Be perceptive of your own cultural values and how they affect your judgment of others . Remember that you are visitor. There are many different concept of time, personal space, communication etc for ecotourism which are not wrong or inferior, just different. Act as an example for other travelers who are less informed than you.
3. Avoid ostentatious display of wealth
What may not seem a display of wealth to you may be considered extravagant by another culture. For example, a camera hanging around your neck or samething as simple as a wristwatch or wedding band. Tuck these items away when visiting rural communities. Leave jewelry and other unnecessary valuables at home. They only create barrier and inhibit genuine interactions. Don’t’t hand out sweets and loose change, this only serves to corrupt and create a begging mentality where none existed before.
4. Be flexible in your expectations
Approach your adventure with an open mind and you won’t be disappointed. Sometimes plans change and an opportunity for more indepth learning or a unique cultural experience present itself. Adapt your self to the situation rather than trying to adapt the situation to you.
5. Conserve resources
Often times the resources in an area visited by tourists are under a great deal of pressure already. Be aware of the resources that are being used because of your visit. This includes your personal consumption of item like water and wood for building fires or specialty foods that had to be transported from afar. Don’t allow your guide to hunt endangered or threatened species or harvest rare plants for your consumption. A large luxury hotel in the midlle of nowhere take far more resources to build and maintain than does a small family run inn.
6. Practice environmental minimum impact
Follow the International Leave No Trace Rules. Pact out everything that you bring in icluding toilet paper (if there is no toilet) or plastic water bottles (use purification tablets or a filter). Go to the bathroom at least 200 feet (70 paces) from any water source. Remove litter that others left behind. Do not remove any objects, plant or animal product from nature. Be aware of local andangered or threatened species so as not to purchase souvenirs made from their skin, feathers etc. Not only is this impactful on the environment but it is illegal.
7. Choosing a tour operator or guide
Throughly research your tour operator or guide by asking them pointed questions about specifically what they dothat is “eco” and how they involve the local communities and economies. The “greening tourism” has led companies to promote themselves as “eco” simply to trips. The larger the company with more luxurious accommodations, the less likely it is to be true ecotourism. Be persistent in your inquiries of an international or local tour operator.
8. Support local economics
How will your visit directly benefit the local economis or entire community ? This is an integral part of true ecoturism. Use local transportation, guides, inns, restaurant and market. This help treat a buffer zone for the inviroment surrounding protected natural areas by giving locals an economic alternative to potentially destructive practices. Community based ecotourism spreads the wealth and workload.
9. Bridging cultural gaps
Take the opportunity to be cultural ambassador. Much of the world’s image of western tourists is based on the unrealities of television and magazines. Look for situations for cultural exchange whwreby learning about each other’s lives mutual. Getting to know the person sitting next to you on a local bus or the person cooking your food takes some effort but is often a rewarding experience.
10. Continues ecotourism
Ecotourism doesn’t need to end with your flight home. Follow through on your commitment to conservation in your everyday life. Share your experiences with others to foster a grater understanding of our world. You will have seen and learned much from your journey. While it is still fresh in your heart and mind take action using the various agencies, grassroots organizations and resources available to you.

Benefit of Ecotourism

There are many different benefits that can be derived from Ecotourism if it use as a tool by local communities rather than large outside interest. However, the result are a direct reflection of the motivation behind the project. Since these motivation are often mixed it follow that result are often mixed too.

The following article was originally published by USAID, in organization that helps fund varius ecotourism project in many developing nations.

Win Win Approaches to Development and the Enviroment, Eotourism and Biodiversity Conservation.
Center for Biodiversity Information and Evaluation
Whether called nature tourism nor ecotourism, recreational and educational travel based on natural attractions is a promising means of advancing social, economic, and environment objectives in developing countries. It offers countries new opportunities for small-enterprise investment and employment an increase the national stake in protecting their biological resources. However, making ecotourism a positive economic and environmental tool requires policies that foster responsible nature touris develovment, broad-based and active local participation in its benefits, and conservation of developing countries biological heritage.
The Problem
Forest and marine habitat are being destroyed and same of the wildlife they contain is being driven to extinction under the pressures of hunting, logging, agriculture, and fishing. Where areas have been officially reserved for nature conservation, many developing country government lack sufficient funds to manage and protect them. These area is being destroyed because they are not fully valued for their role as nature”s genetic reservoirs of the world”s biological resources.


The Win Win Solution
A recent USAID evaluation has identified ecotourism as an enterprise with potential positive contributions to the conservation of endangered biological resources. (See Synthesis Report Stemming The Loss Of Biological Diversity : An Assesment of USAID Support for Pritected-Area Management, July 1995). Contributions of ecotourism include raising local awareness about the value of biological resources, increasing local partipation in the benefits of biodiversity conservation (through new sources of jobs and incomes), and generating revenues toward conservation of biologically rich areas.
Wildlife and its habitats in the developing countries are becoming increasingly popular attractions for international tourism. Many of the richest areas, biologically, are in the developing world. Growing number of ecoturism are flocking to the mountains of the Nepal and Madagascar, the tropical forest of Cotarica and Thailand, also Indonesia. Nature tourism bring with them money to spend, money that the creates jobs and income for household and communities in and around national park and other protected areas. Ecotourism enterprises tour agencies and guide services, lodges and private reserves as well as such satellite activities as crafts industries and tranfortation and food services, also generate revenue and foreign exchange. Government can use this income in operating and operating and protecting natural habitat.
Be recognizing the importance of protecting biological diversity, ecotourism is raising appreciation for biological resources and leading to better concervation practices by developing country population. It must of course be properly regulated and managed to protect against adverse environmental and cultural effects that can come with overbuilding of tourist facilities and influx of populations around fragile ecosystems. Assumsing such oversight, nature tourism can benefit both the environment and economic development.
The Role of USAID
USAID supports nature-based tourism activities as part of its biodiversity conservation programs in more than a dozen coutries worldwide. The Agency”s ecotourism activities include support for developing national park system, demarcating and equipping new national parks, revruiting and training park staff, and encouraging government reforms that promote regulated investment in private lodging, guide, service, and other tourism ventures.
The Agency’s involvement is recent, beginning in the mid-1980s, and the effect of these activities is only starting to emerge. USAID biodiversity conservation programs have demonstrated that potential local resistance ti setting aside forsert and fisihing areas for concervation can often be softened by employment and income-producing opportunities ecotourism can generate.
In Costa Rica, Jamaica, and Srilangka, and Indonesia, USAID support led to the creation of entirely new wildlife park that have begun to spawn tourism facilities around them. Tourist demand for food, lodging, souvenir, educational materials, and guide and transfortation services stimulates local investment, employment, and incomes. Costa Rica has introduced revenue retention arrangements to keep earnings from entrance fees for park operations ; it award contracts to local communities to operate food and souvenir concession as ameans of building local involvement in and commitment to park conservation. Costa Rica has also included a variable park entrance fee structure (charging higger fees to international tourist than to local visitor) to increase revenue.
In Nepal, Madagascar, and Thailand, USAID has supported integrated conservation and development activities to promote new livelihoods including nature tourism based employment as alternatives to encroaching into protected national park ffor hunting, logging, and farming. Engagement of local people in planning and conducting ecotourism activities has generated a new group of stakeholders with a visted interest in protecting park. The nature jobs depend on it.
USAID’s Central American Paseo PAntera (“Panther Walk”) project has helped establish national nature touris councils in Guatemala and Honduras to involve local communities and tourism enterprises. The council also enlist international conservation organization as advisors to promote green, self-sustaning tourism activities..
These experiences suggest thet ecotourism can be a contructive component of strategies to promote, at the same time, both environmental protection an develovment of private enterprise. USAID can help promote nature tourism in a way that maximizes its contribution to both the economies and the ecologies of developing coutriess. Specifically, USAID other donors, NGOs and developing country government can work together to :
1. Identify and mobilize funding for potential private nature tourism investment,. Ecotourism anterprises, like most business ventures, need operating capital. USAID and other donors can help identify promisng funding sources.
2. Formulated fiscal policies to promote nature turism and to maximize its economic and environmental benefits. USAID can encourage public policies (such as visitor fees, regulations for tourism oerations, and investment incentives and land-use zones for tourist facilities) that promote environmentally sound tourism as well as community involvement in providing services and products such as guides, lodging, transport, and crafts.
3. Encourage international exchange of information and know-how about nature tourism opportunities and operations. USAID can foster participation by developing country public agencies and private service providers in international nature tourism associations that can help them, throught technical and management training, to meet the needs and interest of international and domestic nature tourist.
4. Monitor angd certify the performance of ecotourism activities. USAID can support emerging international movement aimed at prmoting “green tourism “. Green tourism take ecotourism a step further, promoting envirimentally responsible tourist operations that conserve energy, recycle waste, and instruct staff and tourists on proper behavior in park and protected areas.
5. Found research on ecotourism developmental and environmental impact. Informaion is needed to demonstrate to decision-maker the economic contributionsw nature tourism can make. Better understanding of the impact of ecotourism (such as in resort development) is needed to regulate and enforce against environmentally damaging investments.
Outstanding Issue :
Risk : Unregulated, nature tourism can dmage the enviromentand corrode local cultures. Pollution from runaway resort and hotel development around fragile park areas in Costa Rica, Nepal, Thailand, and Indonesia exemplifies poorly manged ourism activity.
Distribution of benefits : Where international travel and resort chains or urban investor control the tourism industry, the local economic effect of ecotourism may be reduced. Early studies of ecotourism expenditures suggest that in such cases not much perhaps 20 to 30 cents of the tourist dollar stays in the natonal economic ; even less reaches local communities.
Perception : Developing coutries fear that their park and protected areas will become playgrounds fpr international tourists, with the land reserved for conservation and no longer available for farming to feed and employ thei growing populations.
Lack of information : More and better information is need about the actual and potential economic contribution of natural tourism ventures and practices. Inclusion of visits to natural attractions as part of regular recreation tourism needs tobe explored along with “purer” form of nature tourism nand travel.
