There are 2 wetlands on the Ramsar list in Japan, Kabukuri-numa and Katano-kamoike. These wetland conservation movements have values to take note, and are cases that changed processes from confrontation to collaboration can be observed. This study focuses on these changed processes, and finds knowledge as practical actions which produced clues to collaboration. In this study, following two sorts of knowledge are found out. One is an integrating knowledge, which made a vision with a comprehensive environmental idea. This idea was it that transcended a conflict, not a dichotomy of whether development or conservation. The other is an interconnecting knowledge, which is capability and actions of providing encounters between unconnected actors. From a tracing of two movemnent’s history, new meetings with unconnected local actors had become an opening act of collaboration. Advocate said, he was introduced by a collaborator to various local actors like famers etc., and was promoted dialogue.
