Through a primarily qualitative approach assessing ecoliteracy and motivations towards environmental behaviors, data were collected
 among participants self-identifying as small-scale shade-grown coffee farmers involved in tourism microentrepreneurship in the community of San Juan la Laguna in Lake Atitlán, Guatemala. We found that, when facilitated through cooperatives, tourism microentrepreneurship and coffee farming
 jointly contributed to land stewardship and provided an opportunity for indigenous farmers to foster traditional relationships with the land.}, number={4}, journal={TOURISM REVIEW INTERNATIONAL}, author={Peroff, Deidre M. and Morais, Duarte B. and Wallace, Tim and Sills, Erin}, year={2021}, pages={293–310} }

In turn, researchers have developed criteria for success, identified the stages and phases of collaborative processes, and proposed a “life cycle” of partnerships. Case studies of tourism partnerships have been explored in multiple countries (e.g., Australia, Canada, Kenya, Peru, United Kingdom, United States) and in multiple contexts (e.g., marketing, planning, policy networks). However, nearly all studies have been conducted in areas where tourism was previously established and most studies only examine success through the lens of one evaluative framework. In this study, we examine two frameworks—specifically, Wondolleck and Yaffee’s (2000) set of eight lessons to making collaboration work and Caffyn’s (2000) tourism partnership life cycle model—in the context of a rural area abundant in natural and cultural resources but unable to capture significant tourism revenue. This case study of the Tyrrell County Ecotourism Committee in eastern North Carolina, United States demonstrates the advantage of integrating multiple evaluative lenses and highlights the challenges of partnerships with limited structure and narrow vision. Furthermore, this case study documents the difficulties rural areas face when competing with nearby established destinations. Despite the prevalence of partnerships for tourism development, collaborative efforts are not always apanacea. Collaborative efforts for ecotourism development have a life cycle, require certain elements to be successful, and need to be evaluated throughout their duration. Tourism managers need to recognize the limitations of partnerships, particularly in rural areas where destination marketing is insufficient for developing a robust ecotourism economy}, journal={Journal of Outdoor Recreation and Tourism}, publisher={Elsevier BV}, author={Peroff, Deidre M. and Deason, Ginger G. and Seekamp, Erin and Iyengar, Jennifer}, year={2017}, month={Mar}, pages={100–111} }
