With record-breaking tourist visits in Kenya in 2005–2006, communities near the country’s renowned protected areas must undertake
or revisit planning efforts to conserve and enhance the region’s natural, social, and economic resources. This article examines
the differences between two stakeholder groups in the Samburu region of central Kenya: (1) protected area leadership and staff;
and (2) members of the communities adjacent to the protected areas. Based on the results and analysis of 30 in-depth interviews,
the authors identify differences between protected area staff and their community members regarding perceptions about communication
between the two groups, and the economic benefits of tourism. The different stakeholders agreed, however, about challenges
related to equitable distribution of tourism-based employment and revenue. The results indicate a need to reach consensus
about what constitutes sufficient communication between national reserves and their community, and to what extent tourism-related
revenue and employment should be distributed within the region. A discussion of the potential role of indicators and standards
to make such decisions is presented. 相似文献
