CBT is an ideal example for sustainable tourism and it is believed that CBT is an extension of Eco-tourism. Especially community ownership and their significant involvement in tourism is the key factor in CBT. A particular community need to be associated with unique characteristics of natural or cultural resources is the other fundamental fact for the origination of CBT. The key reason is to engage with CBT by developing countries is the ability to meet the sustainable development goals (SDGs) by uplifting the living standards of rural people through tourism.
