A professor of Tourism and Hospitality Management, Prof. Ishmael Mensah, has appealed to stakeholders and operators in the tourism value chain to involve local communities in coastal tourism development.

He observed that local communities were the linchpin of the protection of coastal resources and sustainability of the tourism industry and, therefore, urged tourism practitioners to consider the aspirations of the locals at various stages of tourism development.
