Las acciones intermedias son un factor clave para incentivar la transición hacia la sostenibilidad marina. Investigaciones recientes sobre conservación marina revelan que la innovación surge de acciones colectivas lideradas por emprendedores institucionales integrados en redes de acción. Este artículo muestra cómo se movilizaron acciones colectivas para promover una conservación marina inclusiva en el norte de la Patagonia, Chile, cambiando la tr…
Connecting for Change: Intermediary Actions to Incentivize Marine Conservation Transitions in Chilean Patagonia
Intermediary actions play a crucial role in promoting the transition towards marine sustainability. Recent research on marine conservation suggests that innovation emerges from collective actions led by institutional entrepreneurs embedded in action networks. This article illustrates how collective efforts were mobilized to promote inclusive marine conservation in northern Patagonia, Chile, departing from past exclusionary practices. Using mixed …
Sistema de Informação Geográfica participativo: Abordagem em ciência cidadã em Terra Indígena Potiguara da Paraíba - Brasil
A cultura e a ancestralidade indigena têm sido ameaçadas historicamente na Terra Indígena Potiguara na Paraíba, gerando conflitos em seu território. O Plano de Gestão Territorial e Ambiental (PGTA) é um dos instrumentos fundamentais para lidar com esses conflitos. Este artigo integrou uma abordagem em ciência cidadã com mapas de cartografia social em um Sistema de Informação Geográfica participativo (SIGp), para identificar os impactos socioambie…
Enhancing Bio-Cultural Management in Indigenous Marine Areas in Chile
This article deepens the understanding of bio-cultural management through the establishment of Indigenous Marine Areas (IMAs) in Chile. While ecological conservation management has struggled due to governmental, top-down approaches, this research aims to show how the establishment of Indigenous Marine Areas (IMAs) has allowed Indigenous communities in Chile safeguard their customary uses and bio-cultural management. Based on analysis of three det…

Scenarios for oil palm expansion in degraded and deforested lands in the Brazilian Amazon to meet biodiesel demand
Palm oil production for biodiesel in Brazil is characterized by its high productivity in some environmental conditions, under the Sustainable Palm Oil Production Program. The program seeks to avoid deforestation for oil palm cultivation, recover degraded lands, and focus on social inclusion and family farming. This paper assesses the possible socio-environmental impacts of the expansion of palm oil until 2030, focusing on land-use change and impa…
Multiple knowledge systems and participatory actions in slow-onset effects of climate change: Insights and perspectives in Latin America and the Caribbean
Data Geovisualization and Open and Citizen Science - the LindaGeo Platform Prototype
The paper discusses the possibilities and limits of new infrastructures of data and information geovisualization for sharing and coproduction of knowledge, as well as to instrumentalize social intervention on territorial management and development. It presents a critical review of the literature, systematizing the key definitions, concepts, and issues under discussion on the subject. Then it presents reflections derived from the development of a …

Design/methodology/approach The databases from the National Heritage Institute, National Civil Defense, National Geological Service and National Early Warning System were investigated and the local community provided inp…
La vida después de la devastación: Lo común de la tragedia en territorios sociobiodiversos de Chile y Brasil
El deterioro de los procesos vitales del planeta producto de las constantes crisis y desastres ambientales nos obliga a repensar la tragedia de los comunes como ejercicios sociopolíticos de regeneración de la vida en territorios devastados. El artículo analiza cuatro casos asociados a la degradación y regeneración de los comunes en Chile y Brasil, revelando que los siniestros normativos anteceden a las catástrofes socioambientales; que el desplie…
Risk, Vulnerability and Adaptation to Climate Change: An Interdisciplinary Approach
This study addresses risk, vulnerability, and their implications for the adaptation of communities to the problems they face in the everyday life and to those derived from climate change. Based on the literature about risk, vulnerability and adaptation to disasters and on a case study conducted in the Northern coast of São Paulo - Brazil, we summarize the converging themes in the analysis of vulnerability and adaptation to climate change, which a…
Riscos geotécnicos e vulnerabilidade social em zonas costeiras: Desigualdades E Mudanças Climáticas
As zonas costeiras são áreas de potenciais riscos ambientais, sobretudo no contexto de eventos climáticos extremos. Há uma importante parcela da população vivendo em zonas costeiras, enfatizando a importância de caracterizar as situações de riscos e vulnerabilidade nessa região. Este trabalho realizou uma análise na Unidade de Gerenciamento de Recursos Hídricos (UGRHi-3) - Litoral Norte de São Paulo e sub-bacias, indicando a distribuição de risco…
Questão fundiária em áreas protegidas: Uma experiência no Parque Estadual da Pedra Branca (Pepb), Rio de Janeiro, Brasil
A questão fundiária em Unidades de Conservação no Brasil tem sido um dos grandes desafios para sua gestão, sobretudo àquelas situadas no meio urbanizado, como é o caso do Parque Estadual da Pedra Branca (PEPB), localizado no oeste do município do Rio de Janeiro. Para garantir uma adequada gestão da UC, este trabalho apresenta um diagnóstico fundiário para subsidiar o Plano de Manejo do PEPB. Baseado no levantamento de dados secundários e aplicaçã…
