Shifting tides
Values of nature provide insights into how people perceive, experience, and manage social-ecological systems. Abrupt environmental and social changes, such as those driven by extractives industries, can reshape, erode, or generate new values, yet these dynamics remain understudied. This research explores how oil industry expansion has influenced the plurality of nature values in artisanal fishing communities along the Gulf of Mexico in Tabasco, M…
Meaningful transdisciplinary collaborations for sustainability
Meaningful transdisciplinary collaborations that weave diverse ways of knowing, doing, and feeling are increasingly recognized as central for enabling just and sustainable transformations. This Special Feature explores the unique contributions of art-science transdisciplinary collaborations in addressing complex social-ecological challenges. Drawing from a series of transdisciplinary projects, we examine how co-created processes between scientist…
Challenges and opportunities of using applied theatre in environmental decision-making
Applied theatre techniques are emerging in the environmental realm as promising methods for better representing local people’s values in decision-making. These are dramaturgic activities conducted outside ordinary theatre institutions to discuss conflicts based on power differences. We purposively interviewed practitioners who have been part of environmental research projects that have implemented applied theatre techniques in the Global South, i…
Cocina Colaboratorio
Transdisciplinary knowledge co-production has been deemed critical to support the transformative changes needed to navigate toward more just and sustainable futures. Novel collaborations between local stakeholders, artists, designers, and scientists have the potential to further advance such transformations. In this paper, we describe the work of the transdisciplinary project Cocina Colaboratorio. We describe how the project was born and establis…
Valuing trans-disciplinarity
This article intervenes in the persistent hierarchy of epistemological worth that produces scientific knowledge as meaningful, and knowledge from arts or humanities as marginal, or illustrative. The specific trans-disciplinary project we discuss brings together environmental social sciences with performance-based Forum Theatre methods to explore ‘value’ as understood in communities in Tabasco and Chiapas, Mexico in relation to Payment for Ecosyst…
Can theatre be used in environmental governance? The view of environmental professionals in Mexico
Values of local people are often poorly represented in environmental decisions due to power differences. Performance arts-based methods have been put forward as one way to increase the representation of local values and signalling power differences. Environmental professionals’ validation of these methods is essential as they shape the interpretation, uptake, and implementation of environmental decisions in practice, but their views remain largel…
Informes de gobierno y paisaje forestal en Tabasco y Chiapas de 1947-1982
El artículo se propone contrastar de manera sucinta las políticas públicas forestales gestadas en el periodo 1947-1982, a través de los informes de gobierno de los estados de Tabasco y Chiapas (México). Para ello se recopilaron y digitalizaron informes de gobiernos estatales del periodo de estudio, complementados con fuentes secundarias. El método de investigación fue cualitativo con una búsqueda intensiva y extensiva de fuentes, lo cual sirvió p…
