관광개발을 통한 국가발전을 도모하기위한 전략은 모든 국가들의 공통된 사안이다. 특히 경제적으로 안정된 선진국보다는 개발도상국이나 미개발국가에서 매우 선호되는 국가성장대안이 된다. 특히 인문자원보다는 자연자원을 활용하여 관광개발을 추진하려는 국가에서는 매우 신중한 개발전략 모색이 요구되며, 관광개발의 효과를 극대화하기위한 방안들이 수립되어지고 있다. 본 연구는 미개발국의 성장동력을 관광개발로 지정하고, 모든 가용자원을 접적화하여, 미래의 생존전략을 모색하기위한 방안을 강구하기위한 실증분석을 목적으로 한다. 이를 위해 아프리카 카메룬의 관련 전문가들을 중심으로 설문과 면접을 통해 국가성장동력으로의 관광산업을 지속가능하게 추진할 있는 전략을 제시하였다.
