摘要：Collaborative conservation strategies for protecting and managing natural resources help in creating healthy eco-system. Collaborative approach gives a chance in which conservation issues target collectively by using adaptive management of whole ecosystems including human communities. The idea is to conserve the local landscape, wildlife and resources by the community and for the community. Collaborative conservation strategies also apply widely for ecosystem management in informal protected areas. In this paper, firstly the role of collaborative conservation of an informal site is discussed to demonstrate how it helps in maintaining and managing the biodiversity and then conservation of formal protected areas and the adjoining cultivated landscape is compared with the biodiversity of informal landscape. It was found that there is no significant difference in biodiversity richness between the formal and informal protected sites. The paper also focuses on theuse of collaboration in conservation as a way for bringing together diverse views to construct decisions on how to protect the environment for the future.
