Abstract

Traditional systems of resource management have conservation values and principles ingrained within them that officially recognized or managed areas often lack. Community conservation initiatives at the mouth of the Devi river in Orissa clearly illustrate this. Rather than imposing alternate models on the local communities and undermining their conservation efforts, it is critical to understand the values of these initiatives and provide locally appropriate legal recognition and support.
