People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract Forests and woodlands are important for biodiversity, climate change mitigation and the provision of services including recreation, timber and non‐timber forest products. Land use policies currently aim to increase forest cover while also maximising the benefits of forests for people and improving community engagement with the process of ...

Theories of care help explain a peri‐urban tree diversity paradox
People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract Since diversity is often a management objective for peri‐urban tree communities on public land, one might expect to find greater diversity there than on private land, where such objectives are less common. However, this expectation rests on an assumption that people control diversity towards objectives, overlooking the role of relationships ...

Reforestation and smallholder livelihoods in the humid tropics
, 2020 Smallholder livelihoods and the restoration of tropical forests are intimately intertwined. To address the question of how reforestation affects livelihoods and how they in turn affect reforestation, a meta-synthesis was undertaken of 339 scientific ...

People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract Depictions of rewilded landscapes reveal the underlying principles shaping the future of rewilding. This paper analyses a virtual reality (VR) model of a rewilding project in the Scottish Highlands that is advertised as a vision of a rewilded nature in 50 to 100 years' time.

People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract Nature‐based solutions (NbS) have become central to environmental governance. Yet, their societal legitimacy depends on how they are framed in public discourse. This study investigates how Norwegian media actors construct narratives around NbS, whose voices are amplified, and the extent to which plural and Indigenous epistemologies are ...

People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract Across sub‐Saharan Africa, tree‐based restoration efforts are dominated by exotic tree species due to their rapid biomass accumulation and short‐term economic returns. However, their limited contribution to biodiversity and ecosystem functioning has renewed interest in native‐tree restoration as a more sustainable strategy.
