生態旅遊地社區環境監測架構與策略之探討

本研究之目的為建立一個地方性與長期性的環境監到架構，用以評估遊客、社區居民、以及生態旅遊業所造成之負面影響，並選擇一生態旅遊地，實地評估此架構之適用性，以及提出具體環境監到策略。本研究以南投縣埔里鎮桃米里為研究地點，實地檢驗所凝之環境監到架構的適用性，並依據實際操作結果來研擬社區執行環境監到之策略。本研究擬定之環境監測架構包含幾個重要的步驟：（一）由當地所有的權益關係人發展環境指標；（二）藉由專家學者的專業知識，將指標轉換為居民可監測之項目；（三）依觀光淡旺季執行監測計畫。依據實地操作結果，本研究提出以下幾點策略：（一）與社區附近的學術或研究單位合作；（二）解說員制度的建立；以及（三）加強各權益關係人間之溝通協調。

The aim of this research was to establish a community-based and continuous environmental auditing model. It was to evaluate the negative impact brought by tourists, local residents, and the ecotourism industry. The model was tested in a selected ecotourism site-Tao-Mi village in Nan-To County. The results of the implementation of audits in Tao-Mi village provided implications for modifying the model as well as developing strategies for community-based environmental auditing. The research findings indicated a number of important steps that should be included in an environmental auditing plan: selecting environmental indicators by stakeholders, transforming the selected indicators into practical auditing works that can be implemented by local residents, and implementing audits before and during tourism season. The proposed steps for the implementation of environmental auditing were carried out by a number of volunteers in Tao-Mi village. The results of the audits suggest a number of strategies, including cooperation between local residents and academic institutions or NGOs; establishment of local interpreter training, and enhancement of stakeholder collaboration.
