This study aimed at evaluating residents’ attitudes towards the
contribution of cultural tourism to the social welfare of the local
rural residents participating in cultural tourism activities by
factoring gender and level of education as possible differentiating
factors in residents’ attitudes. Based on survey of local people in
northern part of Tanzania, a questionnaire was administered that
yielded data that were subjected to a series of t-tests. The results
indicate residents to have both positive and negative attitudes
towards the contribution of cultural tourism. Gender differences
are noted to relate with cultural tourism participation and
attitudes towards the contribution of cultural tourism. Females
benefit more from cultural tourism than males in economic terms.
Having education raises the chances of locals having a more
positive attitude towards cultural tourism. From the results,
implications to facilitators in cultural tourism to further aid
tourism contribution to the locals are derived. |
