What is sustainable development in tourism?

It is the balance among environmental, economic and socio-cultural aspects of tourism development to ensure long-term sustainability.

Respecting the sociocultural authenticity of host communities, conserving their cultural heritage as a whole (architectural) and traditional values and contributing to intercultural understanding and tolerance. Ensuring viable long term economic activities, that report fairly distributed socio-cultural benefits to all stakeholders, including stable employment as well as income generation and social services opportunities to host communities, and that contribute to reducing poverty. (Organización Mundial del Turismo -OMT, 2004)
