Tourism doesn't always mean wealth and development for the Southern countries.

The statement comes from a report [pt] on “Dynamics and impacts of the expansion of tourism in the Bijagós islands”, a protected sea area in Guinea Bissau. Cape Verdean blog Morabeza shares [pt] the study by CETRI (Centre Tricontinental) with Portuguese NGO IMVF and Tiniguena.
