Community-Based Tourism Readiness Diagnostic: Introduction
Diagnostic tool: Provides a frame of reference to assess the community’s readiness for Community-Based Tourism (CBT) based on key
success factors.
Purposes: * Measure community capacity and readiness for CBT development by assessing development-related strengths and
weaknesses.
* Support planning and implementation of CBT development.
* Identify gaps and priorities to include in a project plan and/or funding proposal.
Users: *National Tourism Organizations (NTO’s)
* Business Development Organizations (BDOs)
* Donor and development agencies
* Community organisations
Process: Guidelines on how to optimize the value of this tool:
Step 1 Organize a meeting with business and community leaders interested in CBT development.
Step 2 Go through the list of questions one-by-one to estimate the score for each criterion.
Step 3 Capture comments that are useful to understand the score and what needs to be done to improve the score.
Step 4 Based on the scores, identify the main gaps or areas needing improvement.
Step 5 Prioritize the gaps / areas for improvement.
Step 6 For each priority area for improvement, discuss the actions needed.
Step 7 For each action, identify key actions needed and who can be responsible for addressing the action.
Step 8 Identify other immediate next steps needed to support CBT tourism development.
Step 9 Establish processes for moving forward on actions and reporting progress to goals.
Step 10 Periodically revisit and update the diagnostic tool to monitor and evaluate progress, with the aim of continuous improvement.
