Inland territories are currently of great interest in the tourism
industry based on their natural and cultural resources, the
surroundings and valuing of natural spaces, local traditions and
cultures, ways of life, and the experiences of territories with
authenticity. In this context, ecocultural resources are
determining factors of development for the mobilization of economic
and socio-cultural initiatives, promoting tourism and generating
conditions of sustainability in inland territories. They are spaces
of opportunity, maintaining resources and heritage with high
preservation, enhancing new perceptions and forms of use,
generating territorial cohesion, promoting self-esteem for local
communities, and providing diverse and differentiated tourist
experiences. The involvement of the community is decisive in
valuing the destination, understanding local ecocultural realities,
and developing the processes of preservation and service creation.
It is considered a necessary approach for inclusion, protection,
and aggregating the ecological and cultural binomial as a
determinant for deeper knowledge of territorial realities and their
specificities. Thus, sustainability and participation are crucial
for the long-term future of inland tourism activities, with local
governance assuming an important role in building tourism capacity,
mobilizing resources, and streamlining entrepreneurial initiatives.
