J. Tomićević, M. A. Shannon, D. Vuletić: DEVELOPING LOCAL CAPACITY FOR PARTICIPATORY ... Šumarski list br. 9–10, CXXXIV (2010), 503-515<br />
From the perspective of the Park administration, engaging<br />
in collaborative planning with the local people<br />
requires support from the State. Regardless of the personal<br />
interest of a park manager or the willingness of<br />
local people to work with the park managers, without<br />
adequate resources and commitment, participatory management<br />
will not move forward.<br />
Participatory management is a form of facilitation<br />
rather than control. Thus, new institutional forms of administration<br />
with greater capacity to engage local people<br />
in the everyday work of park management are<br />
necessary to realize the promise of participatory management<br />
in terms of improved nature protection.<br />
Dr. Tomićević would like to thank to the people she<br />
met during her field-work period in Tara National Park.<br />
In particular, she would like to thank her colleagues and<br />
managers from public enterprises NP Tara, for helping<br />
her in establishing contacts with her interviewees and<br />

To summarize, the findings of this study indicate the<br />
need to strengthen the clarity of nature conservation policy<br />
and the missions of the responsible authorities. In<br />
addition, in order to promote the involvement of local<br />
people and empower the national park management to<br />
work with them collaboratively, it is necessary to promote<br />
communication among all stakeholders. If the key<br />
to biodiversity protection is held by local people, who<br />
have so far been ignored but who are increasingly being<br />
recognised as key stakeholders, then environmental governance<br />
needs to draw upon social science research and<br />
theory in understanding and assessing social capacity<br />
for participatory management.<br />
for kindly sharing their knowledge on the Tara area. Finally,<br />
she would like to thank the DAAD (German Academic<br />
Exchange Service) for providing funding for her<br />
PhD research study at the Faculty of Forest and Environmental<br />
Science of the University of Freiburg.<br />
