Work collectively by minimizing conflict. Conflicts are likely to occur especially when there is a need for resource sharing for the provision of services as part of implementation efforts. Nonetheless, a commitment to achieving the same goals is essential for collaborative governance. So that the key factors in the formation of collaboration are science, leadership and experience, besides internal factors are also very decisive such as political leadership and financial support.
