Broadly realized as the mindful resolution of action through the use of various forms of power governance is an enduring phenomenon that humans experience in their interaction with nature. Today this phenomenon reaches utmost dimensions and consequences in the Anthropocene era and humans are changing the conditions of the entire planet. Governance for nature conservation seeks to justice the needs of human and economic development with the needs of biodiversity conservation.
