“…Experiences with landscape approaches are spread widely across several academic fields and communities of practice. This has been the impetus for the Landscapes for People, Food and Nature initiative to carry out a systematic compilation of case studies for Africa, Asia, and Latin America to understand the design, objectives, and results of these initiatives Estrada-Carmona et al 2014). …”

“…This is especially important since a review of integrated landscape approaches in Latin America and Africa found that a landscape approach with its more deliberate stakeholder engagement process is more likely to discover hidden co-dependencies between social and natural systems, less likely to exclude important actors, and more likely to achieve a larger number of positive outcomes, assuming the initiatives aim for multiple objectives (Kissinger, Brasser, and Gross. 2013;Milder et al 2014;Estrada-Carmona et al 2014).…”

“…A broad level of key actors for integrated landscape management in Africa and Latin America can be identified, based on the Landscapes for People Food and Nature initiative regional reviews (Estrada-Carmona et al 2014;Milder et al 2014). Some common stakeholder groups in both Africa and Latin America are:…”

Drylands-defined here to include arid, semi-arid, and dry sub-humid zonesare at the core of Africa's development challenge. Drylands make up 43 percent of the region's land surface, account for 75 percent of the area used for agriculture, and are home to 50 percent of the population, including a disproportionate share of the poor. Due to complex factors, the economic, social, political, and environmental vulnerability in Africa's drylands is high and rising, jeopardizing the long-term livelihood prospects for hundreds of millions of people. Climate change, which is expected to increase the frequency and severity of extreme weather events, will ...

Adaptive Forest Governance in Northwestern Mato Grosso, Brazil: Pilot project outcomes across agrarian reform landscapes

et al. 2017

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Recent research on deforestation in the Brazilian Amazon has rarely included empirical observation of how land managers perceive and respond to forest governance rules. In this case study, we consider how two decades of pilot projects for integrated conservation and sustainable development (ICDPs) variously influenced forest governance across three agrarian reform settlements in northwestern Mato Grosso state. The analysis combines: i) remote sensing of deforestation from 1997–2015; ii) land use and economic data for individual settler farms and cooperatives; iii) settlers' perceptions regarding legitimacy and relevance of state policies, including land use regulations under the Brazilian Forest Code. Deforestation across settlements varied in association with synergies – or lack thereof – between policy instruments and socially embedded rules organizing economic alternatives to the dominant regional pattern of cattle ranching. In two of the settlements deforestation surpassed or was approaching 80% of their total area. In the third settlement deforestation stabilized at 45%, corresponding with the initiation of ICDP support for a pilot project focused on Brazil nut extractivism to consolidate community management of the settlement's collective forest reserve. The latter process involved a ‘policy mix’ or sequence of overlapping components: technical assistance, cooperative organization, environmental licensing, infrastructure, equitable contracts with surrounding indigenous communities and market development. Comparing with the two counterfactual cases, we suggest a framework for analysis of systemic socio‐ecological change in settlements in the Brazilian Amazon, and reconsider the role of ICDPs in landscape approaches to environmental governance in tropical forests.
