Protected areas protection and tourism management models as a basis for their sustainable development 2018 http://ezaposleni.singidunum.ac.rs/rest/sciNaucniRezultati/oai/record/1/6316 http://www.greenrooms.me/userfiles/Book%20of%20Abstracts.pdf И. Дамњановић F. Đoković Tourism in protected areas depends largely on preserved natural and cultural resources. Increasingly, the protection and preservation of these resources finds support in their valorisation at tourism market, thus creating a symbiotic relationship. Also, in order to make the tourism destination successful, two aspects need to be met - competitiveness and sustainability. Among the phenomena that characterize modern tourism, there are increasingly environmentally conscious consumers. Therefore, applying sustainability principles in protected areas tourism is the basis for achieving destination competitiveness. However, protected areas as specific tourism destinations in which this symbiotic relationship governs must constantly find models of tourism management that aligned with protected area management models. The main issue that protected areas tourism planning has to answer is how much impact is acceptable taking numerous factors into account. The paper, based on relevant theoretical principles, encompasses a comparative overview of literature (scientific papers, books, protected area management plans) dealing with issues of protection and protected areas tourism management worldwide, as well as an inventory and cross-analysis of models, approaches, strategies and tools used for this purpose. Their grouping was carried out according to protected areas characteristics, different approaches to protected area tourism development, as well as to management plan focus for the given protected area. The genesis of models, strategies and tools, and their interrelatedness were investigated. Their mutual conditionality was examined in order to improve or adapt certain models to the characteristics and needs of specific protected areas. Conclusions were drawn on which models can be used for specific situations and that, in order to respect the specificity of each protected area, simultaneous application of different complementary models and approaches may be desirable, including the development of situation-specific custom models and approaches to the protection and management of protected area tourism. conferenceObject 123 123 Green Room Sessions 2018 International GEA (Geo Eco-Eco Agro) Conference
