Abstract

The present study aimed to analyze the implications of tourism in the District of Extração (Diamantina, Minas Gerais), commonly known as Curralinho, from the perception of local residents. The survey was conducted through literature review, document analysis, direct observation of the community in different periods and interviews of residents using semi-structured questionnaire. The results demonstrate the need for training and qualification of the locals for the best use of the benefits that can be generated for the community through tourism. It is hoped that this study will subsidize intervention by public authorities and the private sector in order to create a proper tourism planning at the local reality, considering the perceptions and participation of residents in the process of tourism development.
