The draft Post-2020 Global Biodiversity Framework commits to achievement of equity and justice outcomes represents a "relational turn" in how we understand inclusive conservation. Although "inclusivity" is drawn on as means engage diverse stakeholders, widening the framing inclusivity can create new tensions with regard manage protected areas. We first offer set that emerge light relational turn biodiversity Drawing global case examples applying multiple methods conservation, then...
Resilience thinking has frequently been proposed as an alternative to conventional natural resource management, but there are few studies of its applications in real-world settings. To address this gap, we synthesized experiences from practitioners that have applied a resilience approach strategic planning, called Planning, regional management organizations Australia. This case represents one the most extensive and long-term world today. We conducted semi-structured interviews with Planning...

Transdisciplinary research that bridges science and society is needed to address the complex social-ecological sustainability challenges we are facing. However, many transdisciplinary researchers grapple with balancing competing demands of scientific rigour excellence, societal impact engagement, self-care. This especially evident in growing literature by early-career describing pursuing a career research. To guide discussion reflection towards flourishing practice, synthesized our own other...
In response to the climate and biodiversity crisis, number of transdisciplinary research projects in which researchers partner with sustainability initiatives foster transformative change is increasing globally. To enable catalyze substantial change, (TTDR) urgently needed provide knowledge guidance for actions. We review prominent discussions on TTDR draw our experiences from Global South North. Drawing this, we identify key gaps stimulate debate how can by advancing five priority areas:...
Globally, food systems face multifaceted sustainability challenges and the need for system transformation is increasingly acknowledged. However, there still a lack of knowledge on pathways how they will play out in diverse regional social-ecological contexts. We explored towards more sustainable resilient specific context – Stockholm city-region Sweden. The approach we used based new methodology bottom-up, participatory narrative scenarios that has been developed international science...
In a complex and turbulent world, there is heightened interest in managing for resilience.However, resilience guides, particularly those used the development field, often lack theoretical grounding adaptive systems.There demand guidance on how to operationalize complexity applications of resilience, such as assessment planning.This study synthesizes lessons from twelve cases social-ecological practice are engaging with complexity.We assessed each case engaged complexity, according framework...

Abstract Urban food is a key lever for transformative change towards sustainability. While research reporting on the urban practices (UFPs) in support of sustainability increasing, link potential lacking. This because often place-based and contextual. limits applicability insights to large-scale transformations. paper describes UFPs that aim contribute change. We present signposts based types intended changes as described reviewed literature processes outcomes policies programmes. Secondly,...
Abstract Food is essential to people and one of the main ways in which are connected world’s ecosystems. However, food systems often cause ecosystem degradation produce ill-health, has generated increasing calls transform be more sustainable. The Swedish system currently undergoing substantial change. A varied set local actors have created alternative sustainability initiatives that enact new doing, thinking, organizing. These can increase transformative impact their through multiple actions...
Urban food is a key lever for transformative change towards sustainability. While research reporting on the urban practices in support of sustainability increasing, link potential lacking. This because often place-based and contextual. limits applicability insights to large-scale transformations. paper develops framework synthesise from across multiple disciplines explores its links transformations research. We have developed signposts based processes outcomes that are considered sustainable...
The reflex to bounce back the old ways of doing things can be hard ignore when there is a sense urgency bring business as usual. On other hand, heightened awareness and exposure vulnerabilities, well appreciation for agriculture, food, fisheries essential sectors, provides an opportunity build resilient systems.
