CAMBODIA is looking to the Noosa Biosphere model to learn and apply best practice approaches to sustainable tourism in the KEP Province, three hours south of Phnom Penh.

Chair of Noosa Biosphere and Tourism Noosa, Michael Donovan, recently returned from representing Noosa at a conference titled Sustainable and Responsible Development of KEP Tourism City in Coastal Zone, Cambodia, where he gave the keynote address to more than 180 national and international delegates.

The audience included Cambodia’s regional governor, secretary of state, minister for tourism and representatives from 15 other countries.

Mr Donovan said the two-day conference allowed him to share information regarding the Noosa experience in sustainability, community governance and tourism.

“Education is one of the three primary objectives of a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, alongside conservation and sustainable development, and it was a privilege to be invited,” Mr Donovan said.

“The KEP Province in Cambodia has many natural assets that they wish to conserve, alongside their aspirations of a viable and economically sustainable tourism industry.”

The visit was the result of a personal invite from the Cambodian minister for tourism.
