Ecotourism for Youths in Austria

The importance of educating youth about the relevance of ecotourism has not received a lot of attention in the literature so far. Nevertheless, the upcoming generations have a significant role in protecting the planet further. Especially ecotourism represents a substantial part in this process since the travel industry has gained a lot of attention in the last several decades and has a significant influence on the well-being of the natural environment. This book aimed to investigate the topic of ecotourism for youth in Austria. The primary purpose was to find out more about youth attitude towards ecotourism and environmentally friendly behaviour. Furthermore, it was to illustrate the importance of environmental learning to raise the level of ecological awareness among youth. Quantitative research has been conducted; more precisely, a semi-structured questionnaire has been developed to obtain a more in-depth knowledge about youth perception of ecotourism. Furthermore, a comprehensive literature review was carried out.
