This  study  aims  to  examine  the  effectiveness  of  the  Participatory  Geographic  Information  System  (PGIS)  process  as  implemented  through  the  Joint  Management  of  Protected  Areas  (JoMPA) project. This article analyzes the process of local land use planning using PGIS through demarcation of special use zones. This was demonstrated to be a crucial process in the implemen-tation of conservation projects. Implementation  of PGIS involves several operational steps, broughttogether  in  this  study  using  the  method  of  action  research.  It  is  based  on  collaborative  partici-pation  by  stakeholders  in  the  local  area,  leading  all  stakeholders  to  effective  co-management  of  resources.  The  means  of  PGIS  is  also  discussed  here  as  a  set  of  key  tools,  comprising  geo-information  acquisition  and  analysis  tools.  They  are  used  mainly  as  participatory  and  interactive  tools  for  communication  and  decision-making  in  collaborative  planning  or  public  meetings.  The  results  of  this  implementation  indicated  that  villagers  could  clearly  understand  the boundaries  of  land  use  areas,  and  the  community  regulations  to  facilitate  practical  co-management  of  land  use  by  all  local  stakeholders.  In  addition,  this  study  evaluates  intensities  of  participation   in   3   dimensions:   facilitation,   mediation   and   empowerment.   This   integrated approach  including  participatory  local  land  use  planning  with  PGIS  is  useful  to  identify  problems  in  protected  areas  and  also  to  develop  strategies  and  solutions  in  partnership  with local communities and external stake-holders, that together lead to a co-management approach for protected areas.
