Abstract:
Living with wildfires in an era of climate change requires adaptation and weaving together many forms of knowledge. Empirical evidence of knowledge co-production in wildfire management is lacking in Mediterranean European areas. We explored how local ecological knowledge can be leveraged to reduce wildfire risk through an adaptation pathways process in the Montseny massif and wider Tordera River watershed of Catalonia, Spain: an area stewarded through forestry and agriculture, tourism, nature conservation, and fire management. We combined different methods (e.g., a timeline and Three Horizons framework) throughout three workshops with agents of change to co-create adaptation pathways to reduce wildfire risk, integrating a historical perspective of the landscape while envisioning desirable futures. Our results showed that local ecological knowledge and other soft adaptation strategies contribute to innovative sustainable development initiatives that can also mitigate wildfire risk. The adaptation pathways approach holds much potential to inform local policies and support wildfire-based community initiatives in diverse contexts.
摘要:
在气候变化时代生活在野火中需要适应和编织多种形式的知识。地中海欧洲地区缺乏野火管理知识共同生产的经验证据。我们探索了如何利用当地的生态知识,通过在蒙特塞尼地块和加泰罗尼亚更广泛的托尔德拉河流域的适应途径过程来减少野火风险,西班牙:一个通过林业和农业管理的地区,旅游,自然保护,和消防管理。我们结合了不同的方法(例如,时间表和三个视野框架)贯穿三个研讨会,与变革推动者共同创造适应途径,以降低野火风险,整合景观的历史视角,同时设想理想的未来。我们的结果表明,当地生态知识和其他软适应策略有助于创新的可持续发展计划,也可以减轻野火风险。适应途径方法具有很大的潜力,可以为地方政策提供信息,并在各种情况下支持基于野火的社区倡议。
