Abstract

In addition to the scientific public this paper may be of interest also to wider public, professionals, and all potential initiators of changes. The term participatory governance may be interpreted as a process that allows shared responsibility of management models, wherein the responsibility is shared and decisions are taken by communities rather than by individuals. It is already wide spread trend to participate in community values by different sector actors, and various forms partnerships. In this paper, in addition to relevant institutions (cultural institutions, tourism organizations, civil organizations, NGOs, public companies such as the National Parks), we propose possible alternative ways of integrative management and PG. We emphasized the importance of local community involvement (thru ecocultural tourism, and other ways of participation by creation of new jobs), but also private sector (such as insurance companies, infrastructure etc.) in the managing and important questions about natural and cultural heritage. The cultural, touristic, heritage, natural issues, should be treated interdisciplinary and by multisectoral approach.
