Socio-ecological risks, socio-economic opportunities, and community participation in lithium mining: A “Learning from elsewhere” review
As the global transition to a low-carbon economy intensifies, demand for lithium has surged, positioning lithium-rich countries as hotspots for extraction. The rush for lithium raises concerns about whether its extraction process will follow due diligence to safeguard ecological integrity, uphold local communities’ rights to participation, and equitable benefit-sharing. Although existing scholarship has documented these issues across diverse cont…
Integrated Landscape Approaches: A Pathway Towards Just Sustainable Development
Landscape approaches mobilize stakeholders across sectors and scales to negotiate development–conservation trade-offs and land-use allocation. Building on the concept of earth system justice, we examine how efforts to operationalize such approaches in Ghana, Zambia and Indonesia advance landscape justice. We observed contributions to procedural, recognitional and intergenerational justice, while interspecies justice remains overlooked. Yet, power…
The Hybridisation, Resilience, and Loss of Local Knowledge and Natural Resource Management in Zambia
The contribution of Indigenous and local knowledge (ILK) to natural resource management has recently gained increasing prominence in academia, policymaking, and civil society. However, persistent knowledge gaps concerning the contribution of ILK to sustainable landscape management remain. We investigate existing local knowledge and practices of the Tonga of Kalomo District, Zambia, and their contribution to sustainable landscape management by com…
Multistakeholder platforms for integrated landscape governance: The case of Kalomo District, Zambia
Multistakeholder platforms (MSPs) that bring together a range of actors to collaboratively address land and natural resource governance issues are increasingly common in sub-Saharan Africa. However, the extent to which such platforms effectively harmonise complex social-ecological challenges and deliver improved outcomes is poorly understood. This study examines how MSPs across different scales of governance in Zambia have influenced and facilita…
Integration versus segregation: Structural dynamics of a smallholder-dominated mosaic landscape under tree-crop expansion in Ghana
Tree crops like cocoa and oil palm have ecological and socio-economic significance in tropical landscapes. However, their expansion in tropical landscapes leaves footprints on ecosystem-based livelihoods, forests, and land for food. While policy and research have focused on productivity, markets and land-use transitions, the structural effects of expanding tree crops on landscapes have rarely been assessed. This study investigates changes in land…
