- Divergent priorities, interests, and agendas among local and global communities form the core of the conservation versus development debate. The intricate challenges facing humanity in the 21st century demand a more comprehensive approach to analyzing issues and exploring alternative solutions. This article aims to integrate tourism, a burgeoning service industry, into the local–global and conservation–development nexus. It posits tourism as a mutually acceptable common ground for both local and global communities in the conservation and development agenda. Furthermore, this article presents a model illustrating how tourism can serve as a tool for sustainable development.
