Abstract
Protected area governance is dealing with ‘public goods’ targeted to balance conservation and development. Their
exceptional assets and high community-development potential ask for innovative deliberative ‘evidence-based
governance’ which are multilevel, pluralistic, reflective, trans-border, ecological, dynamic and open to changing
constraints. Mobilizing the region’s potential and applying methods stimulate economy, knowledge development
and community interactions. The UNESCO World Heritage sites Swiss Alps J ungfau-Aletsch (CH), Dolomites
(IT), Idrija (SLO), and Biosphere Reserves Entlebuch (CH) and Wienerwald (A) represent examples of protected
areas with inclusive management approaches in different governance systems.
