Information support of integrated development of environmental tourism in specially protected natural areas

Abstract

The authors consider the issues of information and analytical support for the development and implementation of investment projects to create an ecological tourism infrastructure in protected areas within the framework of public-private partnership (PPP). Considering that the existing universal service for determining legal models for the implementation of PPP projects does not apply to protected areas, an attempt was made to develop an algorithm for collecting, analyzing data and evaluating IP for the creation of ecological tourism infrastructure facilities, depending on the goals and functional purpose in the national park. Recognizing that the real situation in Russia with PPP projects in protected areas is far from ideal, the authors hope that this study contributes to the development of discussions on expanding information and analytical support for the integrated development of ecological tourism in protected areas.
