Biodiversity Governance Models in India
Protected Areas
- Formal protected areas cover around 4.9 percent of the country’s geographical area.They are an important component of India’s biodiversity conservation strategy.
- Since the 1990s, there have been attempts to introduce a participatory approach in the management of protected areas, most notably through the concept of ‘ecodevelopment’.
- New categories such as ‘Community Reserves’ and ‘Conservation Reserves’, also attempt to broaden the concept of protected areas and encourage greater involvement of local people.
