Beasiswa S3 Papua: Tropical Savannas CRC - PhD Scholarship West Papua

PhD Scholarship West Papua

"Community-based Ecotourism in West Papua and the role of Information and Communication Technologies"

The Indonesian province of West Papua represents one of the few remaining tropical rainforest wilderness areas of the world, yet it is threatened by unsustainable resource extraction practices. This Scholarship is for research in the areas of Sustainable Forest Eco-tourism Development, Local Livelihoods and Community Informatics in West Papua.

The PhD project will address the question of whether community-based eco-tourism in specific Papuan villages can provide a sustainable alternative to destructive resource extraction industries, and investigate the role that information and communications technologies (ICT) can play in realising this alternative.

The project will need to consider the nature of potential tourism products, and barriers to their development and distribution in the region.

The scholarship stipend will be $20 000 per annum for three years.
