Developing and Promoting Nature-based Tourism in the Coral Triangle
2015 – 2017
The Sustainable Nature–based Tourism in the Coral Triangle is a WWF–led project funded by the Australian Government that looks to support the 6 governments of the Coral Triangle Initiative on Coral Reefs, Fisheries and Food Security (CTI–CFF) in developing a long–term approach to more sustainable Nature–based Tourism in the Coral Triangle.
​
The 6 CTI–CFF countries are Indonesia, Malaysia, Papua New Guinea, the Philippines, the Solomon Islands and Timor Leste.
2iis has been involved in the project since it began in late 2015, when a detailed Baseline Analysis of the current state of tourism in the Coral Triangle was undertaken that also outlined a roadmap for the future development of Nature-based Tourism as a socio-economic development pathway for the region.
Since then, 2iis has been involved with Field Visits, Destination Planning, Return on Investment (ROI) Analysis, Stakeholder Engagement and overall Strategic Planning.
​
The first phase of the project concluded in July 2017 with the production of a detailed Investment Prospectus and Destination Plans for Papua New Guinea, the Solomon Islands and Timor–Leste.

The front covers of these 4 documents can be seen below, along with the original Baseline Analysis from late 2015 and ROI Analysis undertaken in May 2017.
