Experiences of a changing environment
Forest experiences are shaped by the environment, activities and personal resources. • Fires create potent environments through changes to enclosure, colour, dead trees. • Main types of experience in burnt forests are aesthetic, restorative and loss/recovery. • Connection to nature draws attention to loss/recovery, leading to sadness and hope. • Thought-based adaptions to fire include belief forests are dynamic and a fire aesthetic. Natural envir…
Forest restoration efficiency
Community-based forest management under formal collective arrangements is increasingly recognized as a strategy for landscape restoration worldwide. In Nepal, the leasehold forestry program, one collective management approach, is regarded as a pro-poor global model for forest restoration. However, its impact on the livelihoods of households with varying socio-economic characteristics remains poorly understood, particularly in comparison to indivi…
Social and ecological dimensions are needed to understand human‐wildlife conflict in subsistence farming context
This study explores the social, economic and environmental dimensions of human‐wildlife conflict (HWC) in four districts of Bhutan. Looking beyond the common unidimensional approach to the evaluation of HWCs, it documents the multifaceted nature of HWCs through a social‐ecological system (SES) lens. We carried out a mixed method analysis of HWC based on 96 interviews consisting of qualitative and quantitative data and eight focus group discussion…
How does conservation land tenure affect economic impacts of wildlife
Protected areas (PA) to conserve wildlife are the cornerstone of biodiversity conservation but they can also result in increased human-wildlife conflict (HWC), which poses a serious challenge to jointly achieving sustainable development goals of food security and biodiversity conservation, particular in regions with high conservation values and subsistence farmers. In the Himalayan Kingdom of Bhutan, expanding PAs and other conservation efforts h…
Sustainable development implications of human wildlife conflict
Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are part of 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development (SD) that aim to eradicate poverty, achieve economic prosperity, gender equality, ensure social well-being, promote sustainable management and use of natural resources, and protect the Earth’s natural ecosystems. However, the occurrence of human–wildlife conflict (HWC) may impair SDGs to be achieved in developing regions where people and wildlife cooccur freq…
Religious beliefs and wildlife value orientations influence tolerance of wildlife impacts in Bhutan
Understanding peoples’ values and beliefs relating to wildlife is important in regions where human wildlife conflict is prevalent. This study investigated wildlife value orientations (WVO) among subsistence farmers in Bhutan. We explored WVOs and how they shape peoples’ attitudes toward wildlife using 48 semi-structured interviews and 8 focus group discussions in four districts. A qualitative thematic analysis of this data revealed alignment with…
Changing bushfire management practices to incorporate diverse values of the public
What do you mean by values? Integration of social with biophysical knowledge in the development of a landscape decision support system
Relationships to Bushfire among Residents Who Do Not Typically Participate in Community Engagement in Victoria, Australia
There are calls to consider the views of the diverse public in bushfire policy, planning, and management, yet those who do not typically participate in social research and/or government community engagement activities are generally under-represented. A mixed method research design was used, including a survey, intercept and in-depth interviews to study a diversity of views. Concepts of social values, knowledge and practices were drawn on first to…
A typology of community forestry approaches in Indonesia
Community-based management is an increasingly important form of governance and control of forests and other natural resources. In Indonesia, government policy aims to expand the role of communities in controlling and managing forests. Since the 1970s, many different forms of community forestry (CF) have been implemented in Indonesia but there has been little systematic analysis of these different approaches. This paper presents a typology of CF i…
Applying social research
The evolution of community forestry through the growth of interlinked community institutions in Java, Indonesia
Learning through practice? Learning from the Redd+ demonstration project, Kalimantan Forests and Climate Partnership (KFCP) in Indonesia
Despite a growing recognition of the importance of social learning in governing and managing land use, the understanding and practice of learning has received limited attention from researchers. In global environmental programs and projects aimed at supporting sustainable land use in developing countries, learning is often promoted but without explicit learning goals. The focus may be on capacity building and community participation, and on testi…
The role of collaborative research in learning to incorporate values of the public in social-ecological system governance
Williams, K. J. H., R. M. Ford, and A. Rawluk. 2020. The role of collaborative research in learning to incorporate values of the public in social–ecological system governance: case study of bushfire risk planning. Ecology and Society 25(4):31. https://doi.org/10.5751/ES-11987-250431
Unrelenting games
Land use change is often a result of negotiation between different interests. Focusing on negotiation practices helps to provide a nuanced understanding of land use change processes over time. We examine negotiations within a concession model for land development in the southern tropical peatlands of Central Kalimantan province in Indonesia. This region can be described as a ‘resource frontier’, where historical landscape transformations from lar…
