Abstract Co‐management has been advocated as an effective tool to achieve natural resource conservation worldwide. Yet, the potential of co‐management arrangements can fail be realized when there is insufficient local engagement. In this perspective paper, we argue that schemes focusing on culturally important species (CIS) help overcome issue by engaging people's interest. To develop theory, explore published data outcomes two management schemes, both encompassing multiple independent...
Finding new pathways for reconciling socioeconomic well-being and nature sustainability is critically important contemporary societies, especially in tropical developing countries where sustaining local livelihoods often clashes with biodiversity conservation. Many projects aimed at the goals of conservation social aspirations within protected areas (PAs) have failed on one or both counts. Here, we investigate consequences living either inside outside sustainable-use PAs Brazilian Amazon,...
The Amazon Basin is at the center of an intensifying discourse about deforestation, land-use, and global change. To date, climate research in has overwhelmingly focused on cycling storage carbon (C) its implications for climate. Missing, however, a more comprehensive consideration other significant biophysical feedbacks [i.e., CH 4 , N 2 O, black carbon, biogenic volatile organic compounds (BVOCs), aerosols, evapotranspiration, albedo] their dynamic responses to both localized (fire,...
Abstract Governance of natural resources in the Amazon has changed over time, especially when it comes to participatory regimes. Yet these regimes have rarely focused on conservation aquatic systems or failed fully deliver social justice. Participatory basin that rely provision freshwater ecosystem services can potentially favour transformative and just conservation. A framework referred as ‘Just Aquatic Governance’ model is proposed organize facilitate transition continuing future...
People and nature interact since millennia in forests worldwide, but current management strategies addressing these ecosystems often exclude local people from the decision-making process. This top-down approach is cornerstone of conservation initiatives, particularly highly threatened fragmented forested ecosystems. In contrast, collaborative involving participation communities has increasingly contributed to efforts globally. Here we ask how would contribute a threatened, culturally...
Matupás are floating vegetation islands found in floodplain lakes of the central Brazilian Amazon. They form initially from agglomeration aquatic vegetation, and through time can accumulate a substrate organic matter sufficient to grow forest patches several hectares area up 12 m height. There is little published information on matupás despite their singular characteristics importance local fauna people. In this study we document traditional ecological knowledge riverine populations who live...
Collaborative and community-based research (CCBR) is well defined discussed in the literature; however, there are few discussions about graduate students doing CCBR with Indigenous communities. This project report features insights from nine attending six universities Canada, United States, Brazil. These a part of multi-year partnership grant involving fishing communities three major watersheds, Mackenzie River Basin, Amazon lower Mekong Basin. Each student engaged collaborative around...
As mulheres pescadoras lidam historicamente com a falta de reconhecimento suas atividades, o que tem implicações socioeconômicas (e.g., remuneração por seu trabalho) e saúde (e.g.: doenças trabalhistas). Através uma revisão da literatura, aqui avaliamos eventuais mudanças neste cenário para as brasileiras, incluindo na literatura científica. Encontramos que, nas últimas décadas, brasileiras conseguiram melhorias: muitas, exemplo, gerenciam diferentes associações pescadores em todo país,...
