Journal articleUnderstanding natural resources-based conflict management on borderland: A systematic review
XV World Forestry Congress, 2-6 May 2022
2022Also available in:
No results found.Conflicts over finite and shared natural resources continue to dominate headlines around the world. In particular, border regions have challenges in natural resource management. The regions include abundant natural resources, such as forests, energy, air, and rivers, typically associated with distance from the central authority. However, natural resource management becomes sensitive between each side of countries because of power differences or relationships. This study aims to identify characteristics of natural resources-based conflict management at the border areas based on this context. Through a systematic review methodology, natural resource management conflict cases at the border regions were collected from SCOPUS's academic database between 2001 and 2021. A total of 303 selected pieces of literature were analyzed with the categories, focusing on the published year, location levels, and types of natural resources. Moreover, this study utilizes the Earth system concepts which consist of Atmosphere, Lithosphere, Hydrosphere, Biosphere, and Anthroposphere to categorize the natural resources. The research results display the pathways and distribution of the selected studies. The overall academic studies were increased steadily. Among the natural resources, Hydrosphere, especially river and ocean contain the dominant subject and Forest, Animal has followed in the Biosphere. Furthermore, these studies were examined the case studies for the key findings to determine the conflicts, cooperation, and geographical characteristics in the borderlands. This research contributes to a better understanding of natural resources-based conflicts and suggests recommendations to design natural resource management strategies or models at border areas.

Journal articleCreating a global map base of Indigenous Peoples and local community places and people
XV World Forestry Congress, 2-6 May 2022
2022Also available in:
No results found.The security that the world’s forest-dwelling people have over their collective lands and resources are of increasing importance in the face of global challenges such as climate change, loss of biodiversity and land degradation. As areas occupied by Indigenous Peoples and local communities (IPLC) are increasingly threatened, the need to clarify rights becomes more urgent. Yet, progress is incomplete and held back by a lack of knowledge of where and how IPLCs occupy land. Building on the success of the LandMark initiative to map known IPLC land rights, and Prindex, a joint initiative of Global Land Alliance and ODI to measure perceived tenure security, the next major effort is the development of a global participatory IPLC map and database platform – “map base” – with the transformative potential to map all IPLC rights to land and resources globally. This document details the prospective development of the map base platform and methodology for measuring tenure security. Key advances include the platform’s scalability, focus on community participation, predictive approaches to identifying lands likely under IPLC occupation, and the incorporation of spatially-referenced perceived tenure security data. The result will be a unique and robust platform that will fill key knowledge gaps in the urgent discussions around effective approaches to protecting forest areas and supporting the people who actively manage and depend on these ecosystems.

Journal articleThe wildland-urban interface of the United States under changing conditions
XV World Forestry Congress, 2-6 May 2022
2022Also available in:
No results found.The wildland-urban interface (WUI) is an ecological and social landscape where Americans live with, recreate in, and depend on forests most directly. Such WUI areas have rapidly expanded in the U.S. over the past several decades and currently encompass 10% of the conterminous U.S. land area, 14% of total forestland, and hold 33% of all houses. This presentation summarizes a forthcoming U.S. national assessment of forest research needs related to an increasing WUI in a changing climate. Designed to provide closer linkages between forest science and national policy, the comprehensive assessment addresses the full range of forest research needs including both threats and opportunities related to wildfire, biodiversity, human health, social dimensions, water quality, invasive species, mapping and monitoring. The assessment is cast in a social-ecological framework to consider the complex interactions and cascading consequences of forest, demographic, and climate changes that shape WUI environments and forest dynamics therein. As settings where people live in close proximity to natural vegetation, the WUI provides a unique opportunity to take proactive steps to improve ecosystem health and community wellbeing.
