Piyaya Village Tourism Management Planning

Piyaya Village of Ngorongoro District will be the first village to develop its Tourism Management Plan ss part of the joint project on tourism management planning that emphasizes community benefits (www.tnrf.org/groups/tourism). The working session will build on a series of workshops and evaluative meetings that have taken place in Piyaya over the past six months.

The dual goals of the working session are to:

• Develop a management plan for tourism in Piyaya Village
• Provide inputs into the project's development of a toolkit for community-based tourism due out in June next year.

Participants include village council members, community based organizations and tour operators.

Three additional villages from Ngorongoro District -- Arash, Engaresero and Pinyinyi -- are scheduled to go through the same tourism planning process early next year.
