Abstract

Tourism poverty alleviation is an important part of poverty alleviation. In order to investigate the performance of tourism poverty alleviation, this paper selected 12 districts in Wuling Mountain Area of Guizhou as research objects, and then built DEA model to measure the total efficiency, pure technical efficiency and scale efficiency of tourism poverty alleviation. The results show that tourism development had a certain effect on economic poverty alleviation and the efficiency of tourism poverty alleviation in Wuling Mountain Area of Guizhou was better than the middle level. However, the tourism poverty alleviation among districts proceed unevenly with some districts lagging behind. Judging from the effect of decomposition efficiency on total efficiency, pure technical efficiency contributed more to total efficiency. Therefore, this paper proposed to establish a training system for tourism practitioners and optimize the management system so as to improve the efficiency of tourism poverty alleviation.
