Rural Tourism Entrepreneurship Survey with Emphasis on Eco-museum Concept

Mojgan Ghorbanzadeh · 2018 · Civil Engineering Journal

Summary. Rural tourism and ecotourism entrepreneurship can address unemployment and economic stagnation in villages. This study examines how eco-museums—institutions that preserve traditional material and cultural heritage—support rural business development and sustainability. Evaluating Espidan village in Iran against three criteria (public participation, eco-museum activities, and social-cultural-natural conditions), the authors find the village has significant potential to become an eco-museum, which would generate entrepreneurial opportunities and rural economic growth.
