Abstract

This paper outlines the development and findings of an alternate approach to tourism impact evaluation using a values-based, consensus model of triple bottom line assessment undertaken for strategic planning purposes in Manly. Triple Bottom Line (TBL) approaches are a form of assessment that attempt to measure the impact (costs and benefits) of any development or activity (Elkington, 1997). These include ecological, social and economic elements. In this case, the adopted approach assessed the impact of tourism activities on host community values of place. The results generated a snapshot of community sentiment and understanding of the interaction between tourism and the host community on environmental, social and economic values of Manly.
