Abstract The effects of climate change depend on specific local circumstances, posing a challenge for worldwide research to comprehensively encompass the diverse impacts various social-ecological systems. Here we use place-specific but cross-culturally comparable protocol document indicators and as locally experienced analyze their distribution. We collected first-hand data in 48 sites inhabited by Indigenous Peoples communities covering all zones nature-dependent livelihoods. documented...
Abstract: Researchers and conservation managers largely agree on the relevance of traditional ecological knowledge for natural resource management in indigenous communities, but its prevalence role as societies modernize are contested. We analyzed transmission among rural local people communities linked to protected areas Doñana, southwestern Spain. studied changes related practices agriculture livestock farming 198 informants from three generations that cover period which area transited an...
Abstract Indigenous Peoples and local communities with nature-dependent livelihoods are disproportionately affected by climate change impacts, but their experience, knowledge needs receive inadequate attention in research policy. Here, we discuss three key findings of a collaborative consortium arising from the Local Indicators Climate Change Impacts project. First, reports environmental provide holistic, relational, placed-based, culturally-grounded multi-causal understandings change,...

The last decades have witnessed a growing research interest of local ecological knowledge (LEK), with some focusing on its effective transmission for natural resource management. Here we contribute to this body by an understudied agroecosystem: home gardens in rural areas developed countries. We characterize garden Vall de Gósol (Catalan Pyrenees) and analyze the modes such discuss how mechanisms might affect resilience. identify diverse knowledge, which is mainly transmitted from parents...
Global polls have shown that people in high-income countries generally report being more satisfied with their lives than low-income countries. The persistence of this correlation, and its similarity to correlations between income life satisfaction within countries, could lead the impression high levels can only be achieved wealthy societies. However, global typically overlooked small-scale, nonindustrialized societies, which provide an alternative test consistency relationship. Here, we...
Urban gardens have been observed to multiply in response crises. However, the meaning and motivations behind emergence of gardening movements varies greatly over space time. In this paper we argue that bottom up urban initiatives taking place Southern European countries form land occupation communalization represent forms resistance enhance social cohesion collective action times need. Specifically, research examines role (i) building community resilience (ii) articulating contestation...
Throughout the 20th century, urban gardening in central and northern Europe as well North America has received a great deal of academic attention. However, recent proliferation other geographies, such southern aftermath economic crisis 2007–2008, remains underexplored. The put on hold developments many European cities, leaving idle plots land waiting to be urbanized. also triggered radical political demands, those Indignados, fuelling narratives revolving around social entrepreneurship...
