Prospects for nature-based tourism
Nature-based activities have become business constituents of increasing importance in the tourism industry. In this paper, trends in nature-based tourism with the largest commercial potentials are identified by means of surveys with 60 experts in five different countries/regions with a renowned nature-based tourism sector, collected in three rounds based on Delphi methodology. Results show that the trend categories with the highest impact on comm…
Innovation and future pathways in nature-based tourism – the outlook from an international expert panel
This article identifies innovations that are likely to take place in the nature-based tourism sector in the future. The authors do this with the help of an international expert panel representing a broad range of perspectives relevant to the nature-based tourism market, service provision, and the natural resources upon which this tourism sector depends. The diversity of expertise reflects the need for greater variety in data acquisition processes…
The Role of Trust in the Participatory Establishment of Protected Areas—Lessons Learnt from a Failed National Park Project in Switzerland
This article explores the reasons for the local rejection of a proposed national park in Switzerland. Using a mixed-methods approach and resorting to qualitative and quantitative data, we follow the thread of trust issues in the participatory planning process of a protected area. Different rationales and discourses, both project-specific but also more general, influenced the opinions of local stakeholders. Connecting these different opinions was …
Potenziale der Fachhochschulen für die Schweizer Umwelt- und Nachhaltigkeitsforschung
Gesellschaftliche Transformationsprozesse sind auf praxisnahe Forschung angewiesen. Fachhochschulen sind dafür ideal positioniert, werden in der Schweiz aber dahingehend kaum unterstützt
The Economic Impact of Labeled Regional Products
Protected area management bodies are increasingly required to address economic development alongside the original goal of conservation. This is especially true for United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) biosphere reserves, which are expected to function as models for sustainable development. Economic development has been achieved in many places through nature-based tourism. Sale of products labeled as coming fro…

Stratégies contre le déclin des zones périphériques
L’écart entre les centres et les périphéries se creuse et l’exode des régions excentrées augmente. Dans les zones moins attractives, on dissout les infrastructures et les sites de production, ou, pour le moins, on ne les développe pas au même rythme que dans les métropoles. La Nouvelle politique régionale de la Suisse poursuit une direction orientée plus fortement vers l’économie que la politique de ses prédécesseurs. Son objet n’est plus la conc…
Strategies for preventing the decline of peripheral areas
The gap between urban centres and peripheral areas is widening and the depopulation of remote regions is increasing. In the less appealing areas, infrastructures and production plants are being wound up or, at east, not developed at the same rhythm as in urban agglomerations. Switzerland’s New Regional Policy (NRP) focuses more intensely on the economy than the previous policies did. It no longer targets regional balance, or maintenance of region…
Protected Areas in the Alps
In the rural periphery of the Alpine region nature-based tourism in protected areas can considerably contribute to regional development. In order to create positive effects for sustainable regional development, certain conditions have to be met. Based on a comprehensive two-stage Delphi survey of 27 experienced actors in protected areas and the neighbouring tourism associations in the Alpine region, 14 success factors in the following three categ…
Brandscaping”
Sustainable regional development is a long-term goal for Alpine landscapes and habitats in Switzerland. Areas of high ecological quality and sufficient socio-cultural potential, but insufficient economic power, are looking for long-term perspectives. The economic options of structurally weak peripheral regions could be improved significantly through “brandscaping,” ie a certification strategy for Label Regions focusing on sustainability, thereby …
