Circular Tourism: Cameroon and the Netherlands

This book compares circular tourism models in the Netherlands and Cameroon. It analyzes how sustainable waste management and the utilization of local resources can transform tourist destinations. The Netherlands is implementing a structured national strategy, while Cameroon is seeing the emergence of promising local initiatives (eco-lodges, artisanal recycling). The book identifies barriers to the transferability of Nordic models and offers recommendations tailored to the Cameroonian context: inclusive governance, training, financing, cultural integration, and pilot regions (Kribi, Limbe, Waza, Dschang). This book is intended for professionals, local authorities, and researchers, and demonstrates that circular tourism is a viable path toward sustainable tourism in Africa.
