Possibilities for decolonizing food planning
In this paper, we invite readers to engage with different possibilities for relating to the world and to food by imagining and enacting future food systems rooted in relational ontologies and interrupting the ontological dominance of settler-colonial food systems. We outline a framework that supports individuals, communities, and organizations to unlearn and disinvest from a Eurocentric agrifood paradigm that requires violence and oppression, and…
Scenario analysis using community insights for improving local food system planning
Addressing the complexities of local food systems planning requires integrating community insights to design policies that meet stakeholder expectations and guide targeted interventions. This study employs systems to analyze local food systems planning within a Climate-Biodiversity-Health framework. By gathering stakeholder input and community perspectives, it aims to identify critical leverage points within the complex network of interconnected …
I'm wondering about the society of beetles that I have
Insects are a potential sustainable protein source. To date, scholarship regarding insect consumption in countries without a major history of it has most often focused on consumer acceptance or critically reflected on the industrialized nature of insect farms and processing firms. This article presents the empirical findings of a pilot project that supported seven individuals with no previous experience of insect farming to safely produce mealwor…
Dimensions of integration for landscape connectivity planning
Road networks and other anthropogenic landscape changes fragment habitats, adversely affecting ecosystems and biodiversity. Landscape connectivity strategies have proven as an effective way of addressing this issue; however, implementation in North America has been slow and sparse, largely because of uncoordinated and fragmented approaches to decision making. Accordingly, this research examines key areas and considerations for integrated landscap…
Geovisualisation for effective management of invasive species
Invasive species are a major threat to protected areas, as they disrupt native ecosystems and contribute to biodiversity loss. Invasive species management is faced with a challenge known as the ‘knowing–doing gap’, which refers to the disconnect between scientific research and its application in conservation efforts. Addressing this challenge requires collaboration between stakeholders (including researchers, managers, policymakers and the public…
A systems thinking approach to examine local food systems planning through a climate-biodiversity-health lens
Food systems are highly vulnerable to the effects of anthropogenic climate change and environmental degradation. At the same time, food systems contribute significantly to the production of greenhouse gases that negatively impact ecosystems. Such a vicious cycle of cause and effect demands a transition to sustainable food systems, and this is best done through integrated planning and policy perspectives that tackle interconnected socioeconomic an…
Vertical agriculture's potential implications for food system resilience
Food systems are vulnerable to socioeconomic and environmental changes, and increasing food system resilience has emerged as a key public policy priority. Vertical agriculture is one potential strategy to contribute to food system resilience. To date, the literature exploring this technology has focused on consumer perceptions, with less examination of broader social-ecological system considerations or on-the-ground implications for vulnerable fo…
Reflecting on Covid-19 for integrated perspectives on local and regional food systems vulnerabilities
The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted multiple vulnerabilities and issues around local and regional food systems, presenting valuable opportunities to reflect on these issues and lessons on how to increase local/regional resilience. Using the Fraser Valley Regional District (FVRD) in Canada as a case study, this research employs integrated planning perspectives, incorporating comprehensive-systems, regional, place-based, and temporal consideratio…
Bioengineering, telecoupling, and alternative dairy
The global environmental impact of rising consumption of animal products presents significant challenges to sustainable land use. One alternative to the production of animal products is a set of technologies for culturing meat and dairy alternatives referred to as "cellular agriculture"; in the case of dairy, "cellular dairy". Optimism around the benefits of these technologies is widespread, and they fit within a larger narrative of land sparing,…
An integrated climate-biodiversity framework to improve planning and policy

Seeing Climate Change
Climate change has resulted in the need for adaptation tools to provide stakeholders with the ability to respond to a broad range of potential impacts. Geovisualizations serve as powerful engagement tools due to their capacity in communicating complex climate data to various audiences. Studies have also shown a preference towards conveying climate data through geo-visual representations, to quickly present ideas rooted in geographical challenges …

Community systems models and development scenarios for integrated planning
Systems models can support community planning, and by engaging local government and community stakeholders, these models can be designed to capture a comprehensive but manageable range of key interests, concerns, and values. This study explores a participatory approach for designing a community systems modeling exercise. The research involved convening focus groups of local government and diverse community stakeholders in Squamish, Canada, in ord…
Frameworks and Models for Disseminating Curated Research Outcomes to the Public
In our post-truth society, mobilizing "facts" and "evidence" has never been more important. We live in an age that is paradoxically information rich due to the proliferation of Internet Communication Technologies (ICTs) and information poor due to the spread of misinformation. Academic research outcomes are traditionally disseminated via peer-reviewed publications, conference presentations, and in the classroom; however, this research is not ofte…
Toward an integrative framework for local development path analysis
Despite decades of debate and policy interventions, the wicked social-ecological problem of anthropogenic climate change continues to threaten the sustainability of local communities. Impacts resulting from a rapidly changing climate are now inevitable yet variable in their nature and timing, depending on the extent to which local communities can respond. Transforming to low-carbon communities requires the ability to interrupt the inertia in exis…
Trans-disciplinary Research
This article details novel research methodology developed through a researcher-practitioner partnership and employed in a three-phase research effort that explored relationships between the co-operative model and sustainable development. Firstly, a basic understanding of the characteristics of the co-operative model was established using the co-operative principles as a framework, and their complementarity to sustainable development was examined …

Meeting the Climate Change Challenge (MC 3 )
This paper explores the role that Internet and online technologies played in research dissemination and knowledge mobilization in a recent climate change research project, MC3. In addition, the team looked at the potential of online expert-practitioner research collaborations for these purposes. Electronic communication was seen as a key element for creating distributed networks essential to the project and for building new practitioner/research …
