The Positive Impacts Of Green Tourism On Local Communities In Tra Vinh Province Of Vietnam

Abstract

This study aims to find out how green tourism positively impacts the local community in Tra Vinh province of Vietnam. The paper uses the questionnaire method to survey the awareness of the local community in Tra Vinh province about the benefits of green tourism, along with statistical and analytical methods to clearly identify the level of impact on tourism. The green calendar brings the community together here. The results show that from a resource and cultural advantages perspective, green tourism has positively impacted the community's environment, socio-culture and economy, but most notably the overall awareness of local green tourism. This study shows that the local community values the environmental, cultural and heritage conservation more than the economic benefits reaped, in promoting and maintaining green tourism activities in the local areas.
