DEVELOPMENTAL BENEFITS OF TOURISM, ON THE NIGERIA ECONOMY.
Developmental benefits refer to the positive outcomes and advancements that contribute to the progress, growth, and improvement of individuals, communities, and societies as a whole. These benefits are typically associated with various aspects of development, including economic, social, environmental, and cultural dimensions.

Tourism revenues can support the maintenance of historical sites, cultural festivals, and traditional arts and crafts, safeguarding them for future generations.

Community-based tourism initiatives promote inclusive development by involving local residents in tourism activities and ensuring that they benefit directly from tourism revenues.
- Environmental Conservation: Sustainable tourism practices promote the protection and preservation of Nigeria's natural environment and biodiversity. Responsible tourism management ensures that tourist activities minimize negative environmental impacts, conserve natural resources, and support eco-friendly initiatives such as wildlife conservation, sustainable agriculture, and renewable energy development.
