Geoparks – learnings from Australia
Purpose This study aims to provide an overview of the current socio-political geopark situation in Australia and set this into a global context. In addition, the authors consider this information to be useful for all stakeholders involved in geopark research and development. An analysis of constraints is set alongside stakeholder views collected from remote rural Western Australia. The authors also place Australia in a global context in regard to…
Geotourism – a sustainable development option for Namibia
In the context of a weakening of Namibia's resource-oriented economy, which is anchored on a rather narrow and vulnerable footing, tourism is placed to play a more prominent role in the future. It will provide a more sustainable development perspective as a potential mechanism to address socio-economic inequalities, in particular for regional and rural areas. This research note describes Namibia's tourism economy and tourism products noting the c…

Personal norms and the adoption of pro-environmental binning behaviour in national parks
A pro-environmental behaviour to solve the problem of litter management in the national parks is binning. This study is the first to explore the factors affecting an individual’s binning behaviour in the context of a national park. Drawing on theories with self-interest (i.e. theory of planned behaviour) and other-interest/pro-social (i.e. norm-activation model) motives, an integrated structural model of binning behaviour (IMB) was developed. Our…
Segmenting Western Australian national park visitors by perceived benefits
National park visitors are a significant tourist market that demonstrates heterogeneous visitation behaviors. Segmentation studies employing relevant criterion variables with reference to visitor behavior variables prove to be an effective way to better understand this tourist market. Employing a factor‐item mixed segmentation approach, this study aims to segment Western Australian national park visitors by perceived benefits with reference to vi…
Personal norms and pro-environmental binning behaviour of visitors in national parks
National park tourism is an increasing trend worldwide. Understanding national park visitors’ pro-environmental behaviour is crucial as sustainability is a vital issue in the nature-based tourism industry. The primary objective of this study is to develop a conceptual model for explaining low-cost pro-environmental behaviour (i.e. behavioural choices involving low personal costs); more specifically, binning behaviour in a national park context. I…
Residents’ perceptions towards cruise tourism development
Cruise tourism is a sector of the global tourism industry that is enjoying rapid growth. New itineraries and ports-of-call are developing to cater to the growing demand and attract growing market interest. The perceptions of local residents as a major stakeholder are crucial to determine the success of future tourism development. Studies of residents’ perceptions towards tourism development are widespread in the tourism literature but few focuses…

The Perceptions of Ecotourism Operators in Western Australia
Though the nature and characteristics of ecotourism in other parts of Australia and in other countries have been examined, little is known about ecotourism in Western Australia. This paper represents a first step and reports on the results of a survey of Western Australian ecotourism tour operators. The paper is simple, descriptive-level case study and its value lies in the relatively scant knowledge base. Data were obtained using questionnaires …

Currently over 20 million hectares of the State are protected in national and marine parks and nature reserves, areas that continue to attract increasing numbers of tourists. Given the vastness of Western Australia, the size of its parks and reserves, their wide dispersal, and relative…
