Tourism impacts are wide-ranging, are perceived differently by different interest groups, and are subject to extensive uncertainty. However, there appears to be widespread agreement that education has, at the very least, an important role to play in the achievement of sustainable tourism. In this paper a possible theoretical approach to education for sustainable tourism is advanced, and a small scale research project based upon this approach is described. The project sought to integrate education for sustainable tourism into an established management curriculum using an innovative technique based on the idea of an “adaptive concept.” Following the collection and analysis of both qualitative and, to a lesser degree, quantitative data, it was concluded that gains might legitimately be claimed in terms of criteria drawn from the perspectives of both environmental education and management education.  \nRésumé  \nLe tourisme est l’industrie qui connaît la plus forte croissance dans le monde. Ses incidences environnementales sont si importantes que la réalisation du tourisme durable devrait faire partie intégrante du développement durable. Les répercussions du tourisme sont vastes, sont perçues différemment par les divers groupes d’intérêt et sont entourées d’une grande incertitude. Cependant, il semble régner un large consensus à savoir que l’éducation a, tout au moins, un rôle prépondérant à jouer dans la concrétisation du tourisme durable. Dans cet exposé, il est question d’une approche théorique potentielle del’éducation en vue du tourisme durable et de la description d’un  \nCanadian Journal of Environmental Education, 4, Summer 1999 193  \nprojet de recherche à petite échelle fondé sur cette approche. Ce projet visait à intégrer l’éducation en vue du tourisme durable dans un programme de gestion établi, au moyen d’une technique novatrice basée sur l’idée d’un \" concept adapté \" . Suite à la collecte et à l’analyse de données qualitatives et, à un degré moindre, quantitatives, il a été conclu que des avantages pouvaient légitimement découler des critères tirés des perspectives tant de l’éducation relative à l’environnement que de la formation en gestion.  \nGlobal tourism is the world’s biggest and fastest growing industry (Filion, Foley, & Jacquemot, 1994). To many governments the expansion of tourism appears to be a very attractive method of achieving economic growth. Potential hard currency earnings for successful host countries are large. The expectation of such earnings is central to the development plans of a number of small states (Cater, 1995), and an important component in the strategies of many larger ones. Other advantageous aspects of tourism growth may include the creation of (often usefully decentralised) employment, enhanced tax revenues, a stimulus to conservation efforts, the attraction of inward foreign investment, and the creation of economic and recreational infrastructure for local use (Alderman, 1994; Pleumarom, 1994) .  \nEcotourism is an increasingly important segment of the total tourism industry. While doubts seem likely to persist about the meaning, or even the possibility of sustainable tourism, it should be clear that ecotourism isnot necessarily sustainable. Ecotourism has been estimated to account for between 40-60% of international tourism and at least 25% of domestic tourism. Annual economic impacts from ecotourism maybe as much as US$ 1.2 trillion (Filion, Foley, & Jacquemot, 1994). However, doubts about these figures arise not only from problems of data collection and processing, but also from the lack of any universa","cbCaifCVc1Srcnhh","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaifCVc1Srcnhh","pdf",173134,"English","# Education and Training for Sustainable Tourism\n## Environmental impacts and stakeholder uncertainty\n## Theoretical approach for education\n## Small-scale research project and adaptive concept\n## Data analysis and findings","[{\"question\":\"Why does sustainable tourism require attention to education and training?\",\"answer\":\"Tourism’s environmental impacts are substantial and uncertain across stakeholder groups.
