Assessing biodiversity risks in African agriculture for the One Food Risk: A review of research trends through bibliometric analysis
Food systems are central to human well-being and food security, but are also major drivers of biodiversity loss through deforestation, land conversion, monoculture, and intensive agrochemical use. Guided by One Health philosophy and aligned with the One Food Programme, this study assesses biodiversity risks associated with African food systems. A bibliometric and narrative review of nearly 12,000 peer-reviewed studies was conducted to examine res…
The Southern African Program on Ecosystem Change and Society: An emergent community of practice
Sustainability-focused research networks and communities of practice have emerged as a key response and strategy to build capacity and knowledge to support transformation towards more sustainable, just and equitable futures. This paper synthesises insights from the development of a community of practice on social-ecological systems (SES) research in southern Africa over the past decade, linked to the international Programme on Ecosystem Change an…
Social-ecological change: Insights from the Southern African Program on Ecosystem Change and Society
Social-ecological systems (SES) research has emerged as an important area of sustainability \nscience, informing and supporting pressing issues of transformation towards more sustainable, \njust and equitable futures. To date, much SES research has been done in or from the Global \nNorth, where the challenges and contexts for supporting sustainability transformations are \nsubstantially different from the Global South. This paper synthesises emer…
Perceived impacts of woody encroachment on ecosystem services in Hluhluwe, South Africa
Anticipating, avoiding, and managing disruptive environmental change such as regime shifts and the impacts it has on human well-being is a key sustainability challenge. Woody encroachment is a globally important example of a regime shift that occurs in savanna systems, where a large fraction of the world’s poor live. Woody encroachment is known to negatively impact a variety of ecosystem services, but few studies have investigated the impact of w…
Panarchy: Ripples of a Boundary Concept
How do social-ecological systems change over time? In 2002 C. S. Holling and colleagues proposed the concept of panarchy, which presented social-ecological systems as an interacting set of adaptive cycles, each produced by the dynamic tensions between novelty and efficiency at multiple scales. Initially introduced as a conceptual framework and set of metaphors, panarchy has gained the attention of scholars across many disciplines, and its ideas c…
