Beyond the Policy Void: The Power of Community in Urban Conservation Governance in the Western Cape, South Africa
This study investigates how local conservation initiatives in the Cape Floristic Region’s urban areas are governed and how governance aligns with South African conservation policies. Using a qualitative case study approach, it examines three community-driven projects through semi-structured interviews with key stakeholders, including municipal officials, project managers, and volunteers. Governance effectiveness was assessed using Bennett and Sat…
Exploring narratives of human–nature connections in protected areas
Protected areas have become the most widespread strategy for nature conservation, and are currently expanding worldwide. Many of them are inhabited or close to inhabited areas, shaping and being shaped by connections between people and nature. These connections are not always positive. Social fragmentation, in the form of conflicts and disconnections from nature, represents a major challenge for biodiversity conservation in protected areas. Asses…
The role of trust in wildlife damage response systems: One step towards coexistence between livestock farming and large carnivores
Wildlife damage to livestock and crops is the primary cause of conflict and a major barrier to human–wildlife coexistence across Europe and beyond. Data on such damages play a key role in understanding and shaping these conflicts. Policy responses have emphasised prevention and compensation to support extensive husbandry practices; however, these measures do not necessarily prevent conflicts, and damage management remains highly contested in some…
Participatory storytelling: Participatory research methods for sustainability ‐ toolkit #17
Participatory storytelling is a dynamic and inclusive method in sustainability science, enabling researchers and local communities to co-create rich, place-based narratives. Focusing on the lived experiences and voices of diverse actors, it reveals the values, emotions, and power dynamics that shape social-ecological systems. As both a research method and a space for dialogue, it helps bridge knowledge and action while supporting more reflexive a…
A review of high nature value farming systems in Europe: Biodiversity, ecosystem services, drivers, innovations and future prospects
Farming systems of high natural and cultural value represent approximately 30% of farmlands in the European Union and are associated with a high species and habitat diversity and/or the presence of species of European conservation concern. This study aims to synthesize the existing knowledge on the assessment of biodiversity and ecosystem services, the social‐ecological drivers of change and the innovations developed around high nature value (HNV…
Engaging with justice in integrated landscape approaches
Climate and biodiversity crises, conflicts over access to land, water, or food, multiple and overlapping types of land management and livelihoods are some of the players that describe current landscape challenges worldwide. It has been broadly acknowledged that addressing interconnected social and ecological challenges needs integrated solutions at landscape scale. Integrated landscape approaches (ILAs) are governance strategies that deal with th…
