大量的研究表明，基于社区的方法对于保护和自然资源管理更有效，因为它们促进了自我组织的治理，其中规则由资源使用者制定和修改，并实行相互监督。另一方面，以社区为基础的保护面临的挑战，如当地社区缺乏人力和财政资源，预计将通过生态旅游来解决，生态旅游最初是为了经济利益、保护、当地社区和环境教育而设计的。基于这些理论，本研究的重点是在柬埔寨的森林保护的情况下，人们在很大程度上依赖于森林资源，以澄清目前的情况和潜在的问题，以社区为基础的保护在该国的政策发展。结果表明，生态旅游有助于以社区为基础的保护作为假设，并积极的保护成果被确定。此外，它也建议，社会资本是通过社区为基础的方法，预计将促进自组织系统的加强。在这种情况下，基于社区的办法的结合似乎可以补充相互存在的挑战。
A substantial number of studies have shown that community-based approaches are more effective for conservation and natural resource management, since they promote selforganised governance in which the rules are devised and modified by the resource users and mutual monitoring is enforced. On the other hand, challenges of community-based conservation such as the lack of human and financial resources in local communities are expected to be tackled by ecotourism that was originally designed for financial benefits, conservation, local communities, and environmental education. Based on these theories, this study focuses on a case of forest conservation in Cambodia, in which people rely heavily on forest resources, to clarify the current situation and underlying issues for policy development of community-based conservation in the country. Results show that ecotourism has contributed to community-based conservation as the assumption, and positive outcomes for conservation were ascertained. Furthermore, it is also suggested that social capital was strengthened through communitybased approaches, which is expected to promote the self-organised system. In this case, a combination of community-based approaches seems to complement mutually existing challenges.
