  • Why do people go to nature? Enhancing the recognition and scope of cultural ecosystem services in landscape

    Open AccessJan Daněk, Ľuboš Slovák et al.ARTICLEPeople and Nature2026

    The cultural ecosystem services (CES) framework allows to systematically analyse non‐material human–nature relationships and can help to increase the recognition and scope of various intangible place‐based values. Although the amount of scientific literature addressing CES has increased over the last few decades, studies largely focus only on a limited portfolio of ‘prominent’ CES categories. The objective of this study was to explore a broad ran…

  • Rethinking scenario building for sustainable futures

    Open AccessDanilo Borja, Jan Daněk et al.ARTICLEEcosystems and People2025

    Scenario building is a powerful tool for evaluating drivers of environmental change and assessing alternative socioecological pathways, helping integrate science-based information into decision-making.

    Reaching sustainable and just futures for people and nature requires tackling complex social-ecological challenges across multiple scales, from local to global. Pathways towards such futures are largely driven by people’s decisions and actions, underpinned by multiple types of motivations and values. Thus, understanding the link between potential futures and the values underpinning them represents a key question of current sustainability research…

  • Philosophical and societal elements of human upbringing

    Open AccessJan DaněkARTICLEXLinguae2019

    The study is focused on analysis of topical issues of creating human personality. The author's base is on the theory of philosophy of education and in particular on its importance. The text gradually resolves the philosophy of man in relation to the nature and the society, the philosophy of education and the philosophy of pedagogy as educational science. The summary of meanings of the philosophy of education links the human being with nature and …
