Climate
change policy is important in guiding response actions in curbing the effects
of climate change. Many developing countries are at a stage of formulating
general climate change policies and are yet to make them sector specific. The
tourism sector in particular is lagging behind compared with other sectors,
such as agriculture, energy and water, which have received more attention.
The study has shown that the tourism sector should be looked closely when responding to climate change. Even though this study confined itself to the public policy makers , t suggests that research and focus must be extended to other categories such as development policy makers, community based organisations and the private sector as they play a crucial role.
