This paper examines relationships between tourism and sustainable development via a case study that took place in Egypt from September 2011 to March 2012. The study, hosted by the Planeterra Foundation and G Adventures travel and conducted through the Heller School for Social Policy and Management at Brandeis University, focused on a search for and evaluation of extant community development projects that could be linked to tourism in Egypt following the revolution of January 2011. The intent of the study was to examine a systematic process for identifying, evaluating, selecting, and integrating existing projects with the tourism economy to support sustainable local development, and to add to the larger discourse on tourism and development.
