Negotiating Trees and Trade
This paper examines how gendered norms, informality, and structural inequalities govern women’s agency in tree-based forest and agroforestry products (TFAPs) value chains in Kenya, focusing on tamarind (Tamarindus indica L.) and coconut (Cocos nucifera L.). It analyses how constraints affect women’s access to resources, decision-making, and opportunities to develop their TFAPs businesses, as well as how women respond through individual and collec…
Leveraging urban consumer perceptions to strengthen marketing for baobab, coconut, and tamarind in Mombasa, Kenya
Urban consumers show strong demand for baobab, coconut and tamarind products. • Product choice is driven by nutrition, taste and cultural familiarity. • Four key factors shaping consumer perceptions of products from these three species. • Better marketing and value chains for these products can promote business and livelihoods. Tree-based forest and agroforestry products (TFAPs) are essential for food security, climate resilience and rural liveli…
Climate concern, wood’s perceived climate benefits, and attitudes as predictors of intention to live in multi-storey wooden buildings
Climate belief and concern strengthen belief in wood’s climate benefit across countries. • Belief in wood’s low-carbon role improves attitudes toward MSWB living. • Comfort and liveability attitudes mediate beliefs and MSWB intentions. • Climate beliefs alone are weaker predictors of intention than liveability attitudes. • Wood buildings can support sustainable futures if consumer-aligned. The built environment is a major contributor to global em…
Africanyouth4forests – from science to youth action for sustainable forests
African forests are critical for biodiversity, climate resilience, and livelihoods but face mounting pressures from deforestation, land-use change, and climate impacts. The AfricanYouth4Forests (AY4F) initiative, launched in 2024, mobilises youth as agents of sustainable forestry through participatory science, digital tools, and policy engagement. Workshops in Kenya and Cameroon brought together young leaders, scientists, and policymakers to co-c…
Analyzing environmental communication and citizen science in the context of environmental monitoring and assessment for Agenda 2030 in rural settings of Chile and Sweden
Introduction This article offers an analysis of environmental communication (EC) and citizen science (CS) in the context of Environmental Monitoring and Assessment (EMA) for the implementation of Sustainable Development Goal 15 (Life on Land) in Chile and Sweden. Methods The paper is based on fieldwork in two rural study areas of Chile and Sweden where we followed different CS initiatives in relation to EMA and Agenda 2030. We conducted interview…
Consumer housing choices among residents living in wooden multi-storey buildings
Wooden multi-storey construction (WMC) offers an alternative building solution for urban consumers seeking a low-carbon, sustainable lifestyle yet, the literature on consumer experiences in newly constructed WMC-apartments is sparse. This exploratory study develops an understanding about consumer choices with newly built WMC-apartments through thematic interviews of residents and property managers in five cities across Finland and Sweden.Contents…
Public perceptions of using forests to fuel the European bioeconomy
The political project on bioeconomy strives to address multiple societal aspirations, namely combine economic growth with environmental sustainability in some socially acceptable manner. The contradictions between the goals and the concrete plans to increase production, processing, and consumption of forest biomass in Europe have however raised sustainability concerns within and beyond its borders. While political actors articulate such contradic…
Bioeconomy perception by future stakeholders
This article provides useful information for universities offering forestry programs and facing the growing demand for bioeconomy education. An explorative survey on bioeconomy perception among 1400 students enrolled in 29 universities across nine European countries offering forestry programs was performed. The data have been elaborated via descriptive statistics and cluster analysis. Around 70% of respondents have heard about the bioeconomy, mai…
