Abstract
This study aims to give insight in the current situation in the tourism industry of Wayanad, India and to see where the possibilities exist for the poor in the tourism sector by sketching an overview of the value chain and the wider impacts tourism has had on the community and environment. This overview can be used for three purposes. First of all, recommendations are made to improve the responsible tourism policy. Secondly, the overview can be used in the future to evaluate the policy. If the same research is repeated, the differences can point out how effective the policy has been. Lastly, the data retrieved in this research contribute to the small amount of data gathered all around the world. When more research is done, it can be used to compare several situations to see both the differences and perhaps the opportunities in other countries.
