Get Involved
The TRIP model is designed to share knowledge about tourism development between three primary parties: a) those living and working rural areas like entrepreneurs and community leaders, b) academics and students from five education partners, and c) different levels of government.
Entrepreneurs can browse the website for resources, become a part of the extension tours, get your innovative practices profiled, ask our staff to locate information to help your business or field questions for the Question and Answer initiative.
Community leaders and government agencies can browse the website for resources, become a host of the extension tour, have your tourism development strategies profiled in a case study, ask for research assistance, host a workshop or show DVD's and use the how to manuals to improve your community tourism.
Researchers and students can use the cases and innovation snapshots in classes, have your students do a project that provides resources for communities, engage your classes in field based activities with a specific community, document footage for the video series and profile your projects to share with those in the field.
