• Data show:
– Positive impact well beyond that recognized by the local
population and the administration
– Direct impact on the local population
• Promotes:
– the integration of nature conservation and landscape as a
business asset
– more collaborative attitudes

CHALLENGES
• Case by case approach
• Too focused on the tourist sector
• Park administration must be more proactive
• More studies socio-economic studies are needed
• Should not be confused with the value of biodiversity
• Results must be shown to the wide public
• Should be a reason for a better understanding
between stakeholders and nature conservation
