“…However, a challenge for integrative approaches focussing on landscapes and social–ecological systems is the monitoring of processes and dynamics of multifaceted, complex systems under climate change. Natural resource management often focusses on quantitative targets, paying little attention to the temporal scale of conservation goals (Burgos‐Ayala et al, 2020). This can promote reactive, short‐term responses to stressors when defining limits of change, ignoring slow responses of social–ecological systems to new conditions (Gladstone‐Gallagher et al, 2022).…”

Protected areas are central for long‐term conservation of biodiversity and can potentially support climate change mitigation. But protected areas are also affected by climate change. Managers and scientists are increasingly facing the difficult task of making decisions under rapid change. Understanding individual and institutional futures considerations for adaptation is fundamental to evaluate whether protected area governance is adequate to anticipate, prepare and respond to climate change. Using mixed qualitative methods, we analysed adaptation narratives extracted from 51 semi‐structured interviews with conservation practitioners and scientists involved in protected area management in Australia, Colombia and South Africa. We applied a multidimensional model to examine how people make sense of the concept of adaptation. The model allowed us to evaluate how different actors perceive and conceptualise the future and their level of awareness of climate change impacts on values of protected areas, as reflected in the expectations and motivations behind adaptation actions. The results show a plurality of adaptation concepts and approaches. The narratives are framed under different governance approaches (top‐down, bottom‐up, participatory) influencing the sense of agency, the rationale for adaptation (adaptation of what and for whom) and the level of acceptance of change. Action time is associated with preferences and actions in response to ecological change, with more proactive action linked with systemic approaches. We propose that examining world views underpinning how individuals and institutions make sense of the concept of adaptation can support future‐oriented conservation practices despite the inherent uncertainty of climate change. The narratives presented here may provide a basis to facilitate deliberations about current practices and identify potential contradictions between individual and collective aspirations for adaptation to create pathways for collective action towards desired futures.

“…El enfoque de servicios ecosistémicos (Bidegain et al, 2019) se emplea como enlace entre la naturaleza y la sociedad, así como punta de lanza para las políticas y la gestión ambiental, especialmente en relación con la educación y la participación comunitaria. Por ello, en Colombia se han implementado 182 proyectos para la conservación de la biodiversidad, ejecutados por 33 autoridades ambientales (Burgos-Ayala et al, 2020). Además, el Departamento Nacional de Planeación (DNP) y la Agencia de Renovación Delitos ambientales que afectan la seguridad ciudadana en Colombia: estudios de caso sobre la deforestación y el tráfico de madera del Territorio (ART) deben generar espacios de construcción colectiva local entre actores estatales y no estatales, en complemento de los PDET y el Plan Nacional Integral de Sustitución (PNIS), y articulando esfuerzos colectivos con las Zonas Estratégicas de Intervención Integral (ZEII), con el fin de demostrar cómo la inclusión social abre oportunidades para alinear la biodiversidad y los servicios ecosistémicos (Van der Biest et al, 2020).…”

Delitos Ambientales Que Afectan La Seguridad Ciudadana en Colombia: Estudios De Caso Sobre La Deforestación Y El Tráfico De Mad

La investigación tuvo por objetivo determinar la eficacia jurídica de las normas que regulan la comercialización de madera en el departamento de Caldas. Desde lo meto-dológico, el estudio se desarrolló mediante un enfoque mixto, con método inductivo y alcance hermenéutico descriptivo; las técnicas de recolección de información fueron la encuesta Delphi y el nivel de acuerdo entre los expertos temáticos (kappa de Cohen). Como resultado de la investigación, se presenta el recuento normativo respecto a la comercialización de madera, desde las clases de eficacia de la norma, para el departamento de Caldas. Se evidenció que las mayores infracciones se presentan en el aprovechamiento, identificando a su vez que, para consolidar el análisis de la comercialización desde la perspectiva normativa, procedimental y de eficacia, todo se resume en estrategias de educación ambiental, que permitan a los actores de la cadena conocer y aplicar la norma, a fin de lograr mejores resultados en la legalidad de la madera y su comercio. Es necesaria la actualización normativa, que se ajuste a juicios técnicos asociados con la protección y diagnósticos ambientales particulares para las zonas de Colombia, teniendo en cuenta que, acorde a lo identificado en la investigación, algunos criterios se fundamentan en conocimientos propios del profesional que atiende el caso y aplica los lineamientos normativos, y no a parámetros estandarizados frente a las particularidades ambientales y de especificidad en cada contexto.

“…Not only policy responsiveness from policy-makers, but also responsiveness from society such as through the inclusion of a wider public has been shown to significantly increase the success of environmental projects (Grodzińska-Jurczak and Cent, 2011;Burgos-Ayala et al, 2020). And indeed, the involvement of the broader public in research has gained traction through the last years.…”

With the start of the United Nations (UN) Decade of Ocean Science for Sustainable Development in 2021, research priorities to support the sustainable use of coastal and ocean resources and their conservation are in the spotlight. However, to date comprehensive regulation and management of multifaceted and multi-used ecosystems has proven challenging. This is partly due to the complexity of coastal and ocean social-ecological systems (SES), as well as the multitude of approaches to manage those spaces. In order to address such challenges, magnified by often-conflicting interests between economic activities and nature conservation, there is an urgent need for integrated approaches that bridge the gap between science, policy and society, as well as across different epistemological boundaries set by various management approaches. Consequently, the interest in multi-, inter-, and transdisciplinary research approaches at the national and international levels has been growing. In light of the recently started Decade of Ocean Science, this paper aims at providing key considerations for research approaches that tackle the outlined challenges in managing the ocean space. From a survey targeted at projects and initiatives that apply multi-, inter-, and transdisciplinary approaches, we draw examples of challenges and good-practices. Based on this, we propose three key considerations for an integrated research approach, including (1) target setting, resource management, and adaptive planning; (2) knowledge production and responsiveness toward policy and society; and (3) co-design, co-development, cooperation, as well as effective communication. The considerations laid out in this paper are aimed at the effective translation between science, policy, and society in support of sustainable coastal and ocean governance within the Decade of Ocean Science.
