Inching towards the pluriverse
Political ontology research has highlighted how the dominance of the Euro-modern ontology over other ontologies renders other-than-scientific knowledges as subordinate or untrue. Despite the commitment to base conservation efforts on Indigenous and local ecological knowledge, epistemic injustice—understood as the marginalization of more-than-scientific knowledge holders and society's inability to make sense of more-than-scientific knowledges—has …
Unravelling recognition injustices in biodiversity offsetting policies and practices
Global political economies and local cultural histories entwine in the practices of biodiversity offsetting policies. • Histories of nonrecognition can easily be reproduced in new conservation policies if not given proper attention. • Equivalating what is legal to what is just upholds prevalent power relations and hampers recognition justice of IPLCs. • Offsetting policies can be adapted to enable transformative recognition to IPLCs. Biodiversity…
Networks at the science-policy-interface
An approach that has been suggested as potentially addressing the challenges of science-policy-interfaces (SPIs) is the mobilization of existing networks through a ‘network-of-networks’ (NoN) approach. This paper shares empirical findings from a mixed-method study, combining qualitative and quantitative data, that critically evaluates the ‘network-of-networks’ approach for SPIs. To establish whether and how a NoN can help existing networks act mo…
Mapping hotspots and bundles of forest ecosystem services across the European Union
Forests cover about 40 % of the European Union (EU), providing a wide spectrum of invaluable ecosystem services to more than half a billion people. In order to protect and harness this crucial asset, EU policies are advancing multifunctional management. This study lays a basis for such an effort by mapping the supply of key forest ecosystem services (FES) across the entire EU: wood, water supply, erosion control, pollination, habitat protection, …
Institutions for governing biodiversity offsetting
Offsets for compensating biodiversity loss are increasingly suggested as a system for allocating responsibilities onto those actors who contribute to the loss. As the mechanism is outlined as a new opportunity, the expectations need to be analyzed relative to the ensuing changes in rights and responsibilities over biodiversity degradation, conservation and restoration. In this paper we conduct an analysis of rights and responsibilities using lite…
Eklipse
The aim of EKLIPSE is to develop a mechanism to inform European-scale policy on biodiversity and related environmental challenges. This paper considers two fundamental aspects of the decision-support mechanism being developed by EKLIPSE: 1) the engagement of relevant actors from science, policy and society to jointly identify evidence for decision making; and 2) the networking of scientists and other holders of knowledge on biodiversity and other…
