Grant Overview

The US Virgin Islands face significant barriers to eco-tourism development, including limited infrastructure and a fragile environment. With the tourism industry being a major driver of the local economy, the need for sustainable tourism practices is critical. However, the territory's infrastructure is often inadequate to support large numbers of tourists, and the environment is vulnerable to the impacts of mass tourism. Who faces these barriers in the US Virgin Islands? Local businesses, conservation organizations, and community groups are all impacted by the challenges of eco-tourism development. For example, local businesses may struggle to develop sustainable tourism practices, while conservation organizations may face challenges in protecting the territory's fragile environment. This funding opportunity is designed to support documentary photographers in telling the story of the US Virgin Islands' eco-tourism development efforts, highlighting sustainable tourism practices, conservation efforts, and the economic benefits for local communities. Unlike neighboring Caribbean territories, the US Virgin Islands' eco-tourism development efforts are uniquely focused on balancing economic development with environmental conservation. ## Eco-Tourism Development in the US Virgin Islands ## Sustainable Tourism Practices in the US Virgin Islands ## Conservation Efforts in the Territory's Fragile Environment
