Management of local resources has a greater chance of a sustainable outcome when there is partnership between local people and external agencies. This book analyses and extends this premise to show that the process of research for improving natural resource management must incorporate participatory and user-focused approaches.

Drawing on extensive case studies, this book presents innovative approaches for participation and collective decision-making in natural resource management, good practice for research and challenges for future developments. It employs the practical lessons to show how to organize participatory research, the forms of participation and quality of the science involved, and how to scale up participatory approaches and successful initiatives in resource management.
