Student perspectives on course-based experiential learning in Environmental Studies
Exploring Conservation Actor Networks in Trinidad And Tobago
Networks play an important role in conservation by facilitating and strengthening collaboration among conservation organizations. This study explores the structural characteristics of networks that could promote or inhibit conservation in Trinidad and Tobago. To achieve this, a questionnaire was sent out to all identifiable conservation actors on the island. Social network analysis software was used to analyze the data and generate network measur…
Lessons learnt from multiple private land conservation programs in Canada to inform species at risk conservation
Action at local scales is needed to reduce documented declines in global biodiversity. Agricultural land constitutes 6.8% of the surface area of Canada, including more than 20 million hectares of grazing pasture alone, providing habitat to many species at risk of extinction. In Canada, where a voluntary stewardship approach is the main strategy for species at risk conservation on privately owned and managed lands, the challenge is to create conse…
Exploring rural landowners’ willingness to protect species at risk in Prince Edward Island
Key Messages On private land the Species at Risk Act in Canada relies on voluntary stewardship as the preferred approach to protecting species at risk. Private rural landowners in Prince Edward Island have some knowledge of species at risk and feel that they should be protected, but little knowledge of the federal Act. Study participants say they are willing to change their land management practices in order to protect species at risk, and feel t…
Africa’s Land Rush
The term ‘land grabbing’ has hit the headlines in recent years as stories of large-scale land investments being made in developing countries have become known. According to the Introduction to this
Rural local institutions and climate change adaptation in forest communities in Cameroon
Surveys and interviews were used to understand community resilience in forest-dependent communities facing climate change in Cameroon. Surveys of 232 individuals showed a diversity of formal and informal institutions that relate to most aspects of rural life. Although direct activities related to climate change adaptation were limited, the activities and density of membership in rural local institutions could increase the community's adaptive cap…
Climate Change and Forest Communities
A case study of perceptions of climate change impacts and child well-being
Climate change will affect those most vulnerable in the developing world, and humanitarian relief and development organizations will need to respond. Using a quantitative survey, the attitudes of World Vision staff towards climate change and its risks for children were examined. Results indicate a very strong awareness of climate change and its risks to the key outcome indicator of the organization (child well-being), but there are significant va…
The Congo Basin forests in a changing climate
Tenure in Redd
An analytic approach to structuring co–management of community forests in Cameroon
While decentralization is a prominent theme in contemporary natural resource policy and management discourse, questions have been raised concerning the sustainability of participatory approaches. Drawing on theoretical and empirical research on common pool resource management and participation, we develop a framework to evaluate community–level stakeholders’ potential suitability for engagement in co–management. Four criteria are assessed: stake …
