Six actions to harness the potential of social surveys on people and nature relations: A UK cross‐sectoral perspective

People and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 8, Page 2610-2618, August 2026.
Abstract Robust data on the state of relationships between people and nature is a critical component of the evidence base for environmental governance at local, national and global scales. Social surveys are a valuable method already used by some governmental and non‐governmental organisations to gather this evidence.

People and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 8, Page 2847-2865, August 2026.
Abstract Mountain social–ecological systems encompass steep ecological gradients and diverse cultural practices, yet the relative roles of these factors in shaping mountain landscapes remain underexplored. In particular, the knowledge and practices of women in coproducing biocultural landscapes are often invisible in the academic literature. In the Ait

Cultural keystone species and their role in biocultural conservation

Conservation Science and Practice
Biocultural diversity is declining globally. Cultural keystone species (CKS) are one promising pathway by which biocultural approaches to conservation, which seek to protect both biological and cultural diversity, might be implemented in practice.
