    Open AccessMika Rekola, Andrew Taber et al.ARTICLEAMBIO2025References: 24

    A global assessment of the status of tertiary, vocational, and technical forest education and training found deficits in inclusion of knowledge and student diversity. Coverage of forest services and cultural and social issues was characterized as weak in the curricula of many programs. The inclusion of traditional and Indigenous knowledge was frequently poor or absent. Gaps were found in enrollment at tertiary education levels with respect to div…

    Open AccessTyler S Gifford, Michael J Dockry et al.ARTICLETrees Forests and People2024

    Aspen exists as the most abundant and industrially important forest type in contemporary Minnesota. Historically, the species was seen as economically undesirable yet saw prolific increases in abundance due to pine harvest and fire. The Leech Lake Reservation exists as a unique case study of tribal-U.S. Forest Service co-management, with 90 % of reservation land within Chippewa National Forest boundaries. This large geographical intersection was …

    Sonya Sachdeva, Lynne M Westphal et al.ARTICLESociety & Natural Resources2023Cited by: 1References: 10

    A diverse, representative workforce is both beneficial and legally mandated for U.S. federal agencies. While previous research documents overall diversity within public agencies, like the USDA Forest Service, little is known about career outcomes and trajectories within these agencies. In this work, we look at individual-level career metrics which reveal patterns in employee retention, advancement, and termination. Using employment data for over …

  • Restoring a “scenically challenged” landscape

    Open AccessPaul H Gobster, A Arnberger et al.ARTICLELandscape and Urban Planning2021

    A pine barrens is an open, fire-dependent ecological community once prevalent in sandy areas of northern Wisconsin (USA). Efforts to restore pine barrens on public lands have been hampered in part because their character does not conform to many people’s ideals of Northwoods forest scenery, challenging land managers on how to balance social and ecological goals. We studied the manager-relevant attributes of a pine barrens restoration site to pred…

  • Improving on Nature

    Michael Dockry, Michael J Dockry et al.ARTICLEThe American Indian Quarterly2021Cited by: 1

    In 1968 a large-scale recreational vacation property development, Legend Lake, was carved out of the recently terminated Menominee reservation to create a tax base for Wisconsin’s newly formed Menominee County. Menominee peoples’ resistance to the Legend Lake project and land sales expressed multiple concerns about settler colonialism and the process of terraforming and ecological change, land dispossession, cultural erasure, and implications for…

  • Indigenous Protest and the Roots of Sustainable Forestry in Bolivia

    Open AccessMichael J Dockry, Nancy LangstonARTICLEEnvironmental History2018Cited by: 1References: 8

    In the mid-2000s, Bolivia emerged as a leader in sustainable tropical forestry, in large part because of Ley 1700, the 1996 forestry law. The 1996 forestry law reformed Bolivian forestry by requiring management plans, inventories, and harvest limits while also guaranteeing the legal right of Indigenous communities to manage their forests for timber. This article analyzes the history of Bolivian forestry reforms, paying particular attention to the…

    The College of Menominee Nation Sustainable Development Institute's theoretical model (SDI model) conceptualizes sustainable development as the process of maintaining the balance and reconciling the inherent tensions among six dimensions of sustainability: land and sovereignty; natural environment (including human beings); institutions; technology; economy; and human perception, activity, and behavior. Each dimension is understood to be dynamic, …
