Abstract
Within the INTERREG CE Project HUMANITA, we are looking for insights from good-practice owners from PAs and scientific institutions around the world into the monitoring of the environmental impacts of tourism inside PAs. This report gives an overview of good-practice examples of monitoring visitors/tourists and their environmental impacts inside protected areas (PAs) that were identified by the project consortium. Regarding environmental impacts, it highlights good-practice impact assessment for wildlife monitoring, vegetation monitoring, erosion monitoring and pollution monitoring. It is the result of joint desk research and
knowledge-exchange of eleven Central European project partners. The very diverse partnership of practitioners and research institutions in the HUMANITA project consortium guarantees a broad expertise and experience in different fields of monitoring. This includes traditional as well as technology-based monitoring methods.
