Title: | Diagnosis of the livelihood sustainability and its obstacle factors for poverty-alleviation-relocation residents in tourism communities : data from China | Authors: | Liu, Y Huang, Z Chen, J Nie, L |
Issue Date: | Apr-2023 | Source: | Sustainability, Apr. 2023, v. 15, no. 7, 6224 | Abstract: | Many poverty−alleviation−relocation projects in China resort to tourism to sustain immigrants’ livelihood in new communities. However, how tourism contributes to poverty elimination and maintaining gains is yet to be discovered. Based on the sustainable livelihood concept, this study constructs a three-dimensional index system to evaluate livelihood sustainability and identify potential factors in three relocated tourism communities. Results show that most resettled residents have median-level livelihood sustainability. Livelihood capital, strategies, and environment contribute to livelihood sustainability in decreasing order. Regarding livelihood modes, tourism−led livelihood takes the first position in terms of supporting livelihood sustainability, followed by outside−work−led, local−work−led, and government subsidy−led livelihoods. Regarding obstacle factors, annual household income, number of household workers, and education levels are shared by relocated households across different livelihood modes. Aside from policy suggestions on survey sites, this study provides a holistic framework and enlightens the generalizable paradigm to the analysis of sustained livelihood via tourism development in relocated communities. | Keywords: | Livelihood sustainability Obstacle factors diagnosis Poverty alleviation Relocated communities Tourism communities |
