Cabredo, P.M.A.
The socio-ecological-governance system of the community-based Lake Pandin tourism was assessed and applicable Global Sustainable Tourism Council (GSTC) criteria were used to evaluate the various aspects of lake tourism. Rapid rural appraisal of the lake and its watershed was done. The members of FARMC involved in lake tourism, barangay [villages] and city officials, visitors and non-government organizations involved in the lake tourism were interviewed. The institutional capability building and resources provided by the LLDA, local government, and civic organizations contributed to the sustainability of Lake Pandin tourism. The applicable Global Sustainability Tourism Council criteria identified the environmental concerns of the lake based tourism that need improvement. This can be used for monitoring, evaluation, and modification of the management plan aided with SWOT [(strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats] analysis of various components of the lake tourism. Environmental management options to address the critical sensitivity of a crater lake were recommended.
