Acesso em:.https://repositorio.ufpa.br/handle/2011/1961This research work analizes tourism in the Cabo Orange National Park surrounding areas, in the State of Amapá, Brazil. A qualitative approach was used in order to understand the reality of two resident communities around the area: Vila Velha do Cassiporé and Vila Cunani, aiming at capturing their perception about tourism and assessing the role of the main governmental and non-governmental institutions which have tried to implement development policies for the National Park. Public Policies regarding the surrounding areas of the National Park were found to be incipient and a fragmentation of those two communities social tissue was noticed. Besides that, natural, historical and cultural potentialities were perceived, and yet there are no work projects contemplating such features. It is concluded, thefore, that limitations are greater than tourism development possibilities around the Cabo Orange National Park. Related institutions and the resident communities must exercise their participation rights in order to guarantee sustainability for tourism initiatives, making sure that they bring social inclusion and development, ensuring, at the same time, the conservation of natural and cultural resources in this environmental unit located in the State of Amapá.porAcesso AbertoTurismoDesenvolvimento sustentávelGestãoParque Nacional do Cabo Orange - APVila Velha do Cassiporé - APVila Cunani - APAmapá - EstadoParque Nacional do Cabo Orange - APTurismo ecológicoDissertaçãoCNPQ::CIENCIAS SOCIAIS APLICADAS::TURISMO
