dc.descriptionThis policy brief is based on SANDEE working paper no. 39-09 "A glimpse of the tiger : how much are Indian willing to pay for it ?"en
dc.description.abstractThe Sundarban in India is one of the country's most important nature conservation areas. It is famous for being home to the Royal Bengal tiger and is designated as a world heritage site. The conservation of the Sundarban is therefore a key environmental priority, but, as population and development pressures rise, the challenge of protecting the area will get harder. Now a new SANDEE study has looked at the value of the region to tourists - to help justify its conservation and to assess what level of entrance fees would provide the most income to fund its protection.en
