Abstract: This paper evaluates how the local community participates in and understands sustainable tourism development, taking a variety of demographic factors into account. The “Stakeholder Understanding of Sustainable Tourism Development Index tool†(SUSTDI), created by Byrd et al. (2008) and revised by Cardenas et al (2015), was used in this study in a hamlet. The responses of 176 Shirui village residents in India were analyzed in this study. This study reveals that proper tourism planning, tourism's contribution to the economy and environment, stakeholder inclusion, community participation, and visitor satisfaction have significant relationships among the seven-factor solutions generated when it comes to sustainable tourism development awareness. The results also show that the local community thinks the seven generated factors have a big impact on achieving sustainable tourism development. This applies to everyone, regardless of their occupation, income, or level of education. There is also no significant link between different marriage statuses or age groups.
