This paper examines a participatory and "market oriented" conservation effort in the upper Nilwala watershed. In this effort IIMI catalysed a process of mobilizing resource users in the Bovitiya Dola sub-watershed to collaborate with: a). The Matara Integrated Rural Development Project (MIRDP), b). Integrated Technology Development Group (ITDG), a Non Governmental Organization (NGO) and c). Government agencies including the divisional and provincial secretariates to develop a micro hydro-electric power plant and to establish a participatory conservation program in the catchment. This joint venture was initiated by the Shared Control of Natural Resources, SCOR Project, being implemented by IIMI, and financed by USAID.
