Further background information about the project:
The BOCOTO project proposed an international capacity building program and exposed participants to various aspects of “community-based tourism” (CBT) and youth work in different countries and organizations from Italy, Spain, Nepal,
Vietnam, Turkey, India and Kenya. Through a transnational approach, the project examined concepts and practices underpinning CBT and its potential in the youth field in all targeted local communities and regions. Perspectives on CBT was
explored through a holistic concept of protection and valorisation of biodiversity, cultural diversity, local development, promotion of human rights. Through an intercultural approach, the project engages youth organizations and stakeholders to work
together to develop and promote CBT as a catalyst for inclusive and sustainable economic growth, youth employment, social inclusion, well-being and poverty reduction, while at the same time protecting cultural values and the natural heritage.
