Land tenure security and agroecological transitions: Evidence from a discrete choice experiment in Angola
While land tenure security is recognised as a cornerstone of sustainable land use, understanding of its influence on the adoption of agroecological practices is still limited, particularly in tenure-insecure contexts. This study examines how land tenure security, institutional support, and behavioural factors shape smallholders’ willingness to adopt agroecological innovations. Institutional and behavioural perspectives are integrated within a dis…
Is low-density a viable territorial category for enhancing EU cohesion policy implementation
The European Union's (EU) Cohesion Policy (CP) promotes balanced territorial development between and within countries and calls for mechanisms to enhance the current approaches to territorial, economic and social cohesion. Low-density (LD) areas emerged as a territorial category to define the difference between rural and urban areas. Although the scientific literature discusses various topics and activities in low-density areas, there is hardly a…
Smart villages in practice: A meta-synthesis of implementation experiences in Europe
The concept of Smart Village, created by the European Commission in 2017, emerged as a response to the challenges faced by low-density territories, by promoting strategies based on local potential, opportunities, and digital technologies, using participatory approaches in their design. This study analyzes how the Smart Village concept has been implemented in European rural territories and what conclusions can be drawn about this strategy from the…
Citizens’ deliberation on solutions to fight urban household food waste and nexus with growing urban gardens: The case of porto metropolitan area in Portugal
Food waste is currently acknowledged as a major societal challenge, including the food waste at the household level estimated to be responsible for the wastage of one third of the food produced for human consumption. Hence, tackling household food waste (HFW) is gaining a momentum in societal and policy agendas accompanied by an increasing effort of the scientific community to deliver evidence to address the research gaps on the causes and on the…
What Is Rural Well-Being and How Is It Measured? An Attempt to Order Chaos
While a substantial body of literature has been built on rural well-being, due to the great heterogeneity of rural territories, the literature is highly fragmented, even contradictory. Moreover, no systematic review of the entire domain exists to guide rural decision-makers. Debated conceptualization, contradicting results, and pressing policy requirements make it timely to deliver a systematized state-of-the-art on rural well-being to anchor pub…
Evaluation of environmental actions by local citizens – a choice modeling application
Little is known about citizens’ judgment of nature conservation actions financed by public funds. The present work contributes to this topic with empirical evidence coming from a Choice Modeling (CM) study designed in an innovative mode. Using the participatory budget format, a CM exercise elicited respondents’ choice between the allocation of public funds for nature conservation actions versus other actions (e.g. social or economic interventions…
Evidence on how urban gardens help citizens and cities to enhance sustainable development. Review and bibliometric analysis
This paper offers a comprehensive review on a bibliometric analysis of the published research on the most recent generation of urban gardens. Urban gardens have been part of the cities ever since; however, the present paper focus on the latest wave of this type of garden, that has been triggered by individual bottom-up initiatives driven by sustainability-related motivations, which have an impact on cities’ sustainable development. Its aim is to …
Transições para a sustentabilidade na agricultura corporativa: Inovação agroecológica na viticultura do Douro, Portugal
O objetivo deste artigo é aplicar a Multi Level Perspective (MLP) a um caso de transição para a sustentabilidade da agricultura que ocorre a partir do desenvolvimento de uma inovação agroecológica. À perspectiva temporal e multinível dada pela MLP, conjugamos o conceito de Agricultural Knowledge and Innovation Systems (AKIS), com a intenção de conciliar uma dimensão territorial para a análise. O cenário empírico é a região vitivinícola do Douro, …
"Comunidades de prática digitais e sustentabilidade da aquicultura na Amazônia brasileira. O caso da rede social on-line WhatsApp "Peixe de Rondônia
Este artigo destaca uma rede de aquicultores na região centro-este da Amazônia brasileira, com base em discussões do grupo WhatsApp "Peixe de Rondônia", entre agosto de 2016 e outubro de 2017, acerca de soluções para superar os desafios ambientais, sociais e econômicos. Para tanto, buscou-se verificar a utilidade dessa rede para o compartilhamento de informações com vista à promoção da sustentabilidade do setor, mediante técnicas de análise de re…
The economic potential of agroecology: Empirical evidence from Europe
Pluralism of agricultural advisory service providers – Facts and insights from Europe
New knowledge networks of small-scale farmers in Europe’s periphery
In this paper we assess the types of knowledge networks utilised by small-scale farmers in four case studies (located in Bulgaria, Poland, Portugal, and the United Kingdom). We focus on knowledge acquired to inform three new activities being undertaken by study participants: agricultural production, subsidy access and regulatory compliance, and farm diversification (specifically agritourism). Findings demonstrate that the new knowledge networks a…
Using Public Preferences to Weight Species Prioritization Criteria in Conservation Decision Making: A Case Study to Explore Potential Strengths and Weaknesses
The conservation of biodiversity depends on the implementation of policy with limited financial resources. Due to this shortage of resources, conservation activities must be prioritized so that scarce funds are used rationally to prevent long-term biodiversity loss. To assure funding continuity, since it is the public that pays a significant part of conservation costs, it is imperative that managers and policymakers apply limited conservation fun…
