    [abstract] => The focus of this research is the evolution of Pangti Village in Nagaland, India which changed from an epicenter of mass hunting to a center of community-led conservation for the Amur Falcon. The Amur Falcon, a long-range migratory bird, is an integral ecological element that helps in curbing breeding of pests but was however undermined by huge hunting. After the ban on hunting was declared in 2012, the local population went through immense socioeconomics problems because quite a number were engaged in hunting for a living. In this line, this paper waters the roots of the Center for Ecotourism Research and Development in Pangti village through the conservation and ecotourism strategies which include the local communities, the state authorities and the non-governmental organizations. Forthcoming initiatives such as campaigns and training oriented towards the younger population and the establishment of the Union of Amur Falcon Roosting Areas have assisted the community to which came out the civil engagement. The environmental programs, however, were only possible to develop and maintain because of training, infrastructure, and policy that were comprehensive in scope, and supported by the government. Countries like India, they argued, where there had been noticeable success, there were still limitations to that success such as lack of adequate infrastructure and even some socioeconomic conditions which might risk some of the people reverting to hunting. The case of Pangti Village provides a comprehensible solution to the problem of biodiversity conservation against the background of the community development – when there are food and resource incentives for the locals, they are able to manage the resource effectively.
