Abstract

The rapid growth of the tourism industry worldwide has opened up various opportunities for economic and social development. Among the various forms of tourism, ecotourism has been widely recognized for its respect for the environment and contribution to the well-being of local communities. The purpose of this article is to identify the key role of education and training in promoting the sustainable development of ecotourism. The results of the study confirmed that a well-structured educational system, including a curriculum that complies with the principles of sustainable tourism, practical experience and community involvement, plays an important role in the training of competent personnel for the ecotourism sector. In addition, the analysis highlights the need for joint efforts between academia, industry and government agencies to continuously improve educational programs that meet the changing requirements of ecotourism. This comprehensive study provides a framework for understanding the importance of a robust education and training infrastructure in advancing the goals of sustainable ecotourism, thereby contributing to a broader understanding of the sustainable development of the tourist landscape.
