When done well, it can also positively change the places we visit\u2014a fact I learned during a recent safari in southern Tanzania.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As a wildlife enthusiast, I often plan my trips around local fauna. Sure, I follow&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.outsideonline.com\/adventure-travel\/advice\/responsible-wildlife-travel\/\">responsible wildlife tourism guidelines<\/a>, but cruising around in a safari Jeep doesn\u2019t necessarily help the animals, or ecosystems, I\u2019ve come to admire. Getting my hands dirty installing camera traps to assist researchers studying wildlife in an uncharted and once highly hunted stretch of southern Tanzania? That\u2019s a bit more like it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And this, it turns out, is part of a growing&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/angelinavillaclarke\/2021\/01\/04\/the-essential-travel-forecast-report-2021-part-4\/?sh=25f78bab6038\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">trend<\/a>&nbsp;of the 2020s: regenerative travel. The idea is to go beyond sustainability, which focuses on minimizing negative impact, and instead have a net positive impact on the place you\u2019re visiting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During my trip to southern Tanzania\u2019s new&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.asiliaafrica.com\/camps-lodges\/usangu-expedition-camp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Usangu Expedition Camp<\/a>&nbsp;by safari company Asilia, this meant installing and monitoring camera traps and snapping then uploading animal photos to citizen-science database&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/inaturalist.lu\/projects\/usangu-biodiversity-research-asilia-africa\/journal\/61090-usangu-launch\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">iNaturalist<\/a>&nbsp;to help researchers benchmark and monitor local wildlife populations; guests can also assist with collaring programs to track the movements of big cats. These experiences felt even more enriching than a traditional Jeep safari, and they contributed to Usangu\u2019s goal: helping conservationists from partner organizations, such as the Tanzania Wildlife Research Institute, better protect this under-studied ecosystem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Usangu is one of a growing number of experiences allowing globe-trotters to leave a positive footprint.

Years of negative tourism impacts have left\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.tourism-review.com\/easter-island-rejects-the-return-of-tourists-news12251\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">some communities<\/a>\u00a0wondering why they\u2019d want tourism to begin with. \u201cIf communities see travelers having a genuine positive impact, they\u2019ll understand [what tourism can do].\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>An Urgent Need&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>With overtourism pressures mounting in&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.outsideonline.com\/adventure-travel\/national-parks\/utah-mighty-five-tourism-campaign\/\">Moab<\/a>, &nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.outsideonline.com\/adventure-travel\/essays\/sedona-overtourism-last-tourist\/\">Sedona<\/a>, and&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.outsideonline.com\/adventure-travel\/news-analysis\/big-sur-overtourism\/\">Big Sur<\/a>\u2014just to name a few\u2014more of us are understanding the complex impact of too many visitors on beloved environments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In June 2020, six&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.futureoftourism.org\/about\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">responsible-travel groups<\/a>, including the Center for Responsible Travel and the Global Sustainable Tourism Council, joined forces to reshape tourism for the better. The result: the Future of Tourism Coalition, which calls on industry organizations to follow 13&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.futureoftourism.org\/guiding-principles\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">guiding principles<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some of these guidelines follow a more traditional sustainability model, like reducing emissions. Others align with the regenerative ethos, such as demanding that local communities receive fair income from tourism, and creating experiences that support artists, farmers, guides, and chefs working to preserve and protect their local culture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2020\/08\/27\/travel\/travel-future-coronavirus-sustainable.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\"><em>The New York Times<\/em><\/a>&nbsp;first reported on the regenerative travel trend in August 2020, around 20 travel groups had pledged to support these principles. Now, more than&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.futureoftourism.org\/signatories\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">600 organizations<\/a>&nbsp;have signed on; the coalition is also co-hosting its first&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/us10.campaign-archive.com\/?u=6e4c0586155df5ff8a306b153&amp;id=7ab7288306\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">in-person summit<\/a>&nbsp;this fall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While exciting, this shift toward more equitable and responsible excursions is long overdue. According to&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/planeterra.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Planeterra<\/a>, a nonprofit that aids community-based initiatives around the world, the tourism industry generates some $8 trillion globally, yet local communities hardly receive a fraction, if any, of it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Future of Tourism Coalition principles benefit the community and the jet-setter, says Planeterra president Jamie Sweeting. \u201cWhen you help empower local people to run their own enterprises, where they\u2019re the ones hosting you in their village or community, you feel like you\u2019re part of something bigger than just \u2018I\u2019m here having a great holiday.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The concept makes sense, but let\u2019s be clear: we have a long way to go\u2014especially after the economic blow of the pandemic. \u201cMost tourism businesses had to really struggle for a couple of years. They have to be judicious about how they\u2019re spending their money,\u201d says Sweeting. For many travel companies, regenerative experiences aren\u2019t the top priority. \u201cBut the consumer has way more power than they\u2019ve ever had in the travel sector. Travel businesses will do what the travelers want, so if you want to make a difference, start asking for this kind of tourism.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Regenerative Travel for Communities<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>All too often, travel is consumptive, or in Sweeting\u2019s words, \u201cparasitic.\u201d Visitors often&nbsp;<em>take&nbsp;<\/em>from communities\u2014be it consuming resources (water use, for example, is a&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.sfgate.com\/hawaii\/article\/hawaii-overtourism-maui-water-restrictions-crisis-16380333.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">major tourism issue in Hawai\u2019i<\/a>), snapping photos for social media, or worsening crowds and congestion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Advocates of responsible tourism have long encouraged globe trotters to hire community guides or stay in locally owned hotels instead of chains. The regenerative travel trend paves the way for even more positive impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Planeterra, founded in 2003, aids community enterprises through mentorship, networking, grants, and education. It works with G Adventures to connect travelers directly to businesses that need their support; examples include booking&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/planeterra.org\/lusumpuko-womens-club\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">community-owned culinary experiences<\/a>&nbsp;on trips to&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.gadventures.com\/trips\/botswana-and-victoria-falls-adventure\/9057\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">southern Africa<\/a>&nbsp;and touring a&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/planeterra.org\/ccaccaccollo-womens-weaving-co-op\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">women\u2019s weaving co-op<\/a>&nbsp;in Peru before&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.gadventures.com\/trips\/the-inca-trail\/SPIT\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">trekking the Inca Trail<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s all about equity and empowerment, and enabling communities to tell their stories, their history, and share their environment in their way,\u201d says Sweeting, noting that in recent years, this model has led to some substantial local gains: employment opportunities for women, increased education access for youth, and revenue staying within communities. (<a href=\"http:\/\/planeterra.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Impact-Report-2021.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Planeterra<\/a>&nbsp;wants community businesses to generate $1 billion from global tourism by 2030.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Other regenerative initiatives that have sprouted up include&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.mountainhomestays.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Mountain Homestays<\/a>, a network that offers accommodations from Kenya to India largely owned and operated by Indigenous female entrepreneurs. One particularly unique spin-off,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.mountainhomestays.com\/astrostays\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Astrostays<\/a>, takes the Indigenous-owned accommodation further, with experiences centered on&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.outsideonline.com\/adventure-travel\/national-parks\/national-parks-indigenous-stars\/\">stargazing and culture<\/a>&nbsp;in the Indian Himalayas. Astrostays launched in summer 2019; it\u2019s already generated enough revenue to install greenhouses and solar-powered water heaters in local villages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to Snyman, who\u2019s studied community-based tourism for decades, this approach\u00a0<em>can<\/em>\u00a0work, but it\u2019s not foolproof. \u201cTourism is one of the most complex businesses in terms of business management, and yet, you\u2019re expecting this community to now be a partner with the private sector who\u2019s done it for 30 years,\u201d she says, noting true capacity building within the community is critical. \u201cPeople talk about equity partnerships, but for me, there\u2019s nothing equitable in them when the power balance is skewed. There are good examples [of community tourism], but there\u2019s still work to be done in the space of equitably engaging communities.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a
