This session explores Adelaide Zoo as a transformational tourism site through the lens of sustainable tourism.
Designed for students of Tourism at Stage 1 or Stage 2, we cover the three interconnected aspects of sustainable tourism: socio-cultural, economic, and environmental. The session explores the zoo’s commitment to environmental sustainability, including wildlife conservation efforts, and implementation of sustainable practices.
Your conservation educator will showcase the zoo’s experiences, wellness program and reconciliation action plan that raise awareness about biodiversity, animal welfare and First Nations culture whilst highlighting the economic revenue streams generated by Adelaide Zoo.
By presenting specific examples, the session serves as a valuable primary source for investigation tasks, whilst providing practical examples to help students understand how Adelaide Zoo contributes to creating and managing sustainable tourism.
