Forests in common and their contribution to local development

Book chapter (peer-reviewed)abstract
- In this chapter, we look at the role that a forest held in common can play in supporting local development and promoting the livelihood of the local community. Four dissimilar cases in Italy, Slovenia, Sweden and UK are described and analysed by applying the Sustainable Livelihood Framework. Despite very different pre-requisites and local conditions, our results show that all cases contain rules to maintain the extent and function of natural assets, and they contributed to the mobilisation of different types of capital. In each case there is evidence of interaction with higher governance levels, which protects the group’s room for action. The provision of access to natural and physical resources for rural people in a broader sense illustrates the cases’ orientation towards public good.

Gender and the Imaginary of Forestry in Boreal Ecosystems
- 2023
-
In: Boreal Forests in the Face of Climate Change : Sustainable Management. - Cham : Springer International Publishing. - 9783031159879 ; 74:74, s. 555-574
-
Book chapter (peer-reviewed)abstract
- In this chapter, we examine forestry work in two boreal regions—Canada and Sweden—where gender mainstreaming has long been established in government policy. Despite having policies that support gender equality in both countries, the roles, opportunities, remuneration, and expectations of women and men engaged in forestry work are highly differentiated by gender. We explain this discrepancy by considering the way in which forestry work has been and continues to be imagined. The narrow interpretation of forestry as “tree cutting” has reduced the visibility of women and continues to narrow the range of activities deemed valuable to the forestry sector. By asking questions about how forestry has been imagined, we seek to catalyze fresh thinking about the nature of forestry work and the capacity of the forest industry in both countries to adapt to climate change.

Traditional knowledge and natural resource governance: a gender perspective
- 2020
-
In: Sharing knowledge for land use management : Decision-making and expertise in Europe’s northern periphery. - : Edward Elgar Publishing. - 9781789901887 ; , s. 42–54 -
-
Book chapter (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The gendered nature of land use practices, whether traditional or modern, should, according to the Akwé: Kon Voluntary Guidelines, be recognized and included in land use planning. However, this is not always the case. Using examples from the Faroe Islands, Iceland and Sweden, this chapter demonstrates how gender-based analysis, by means of different frameworks of complexity, can be useful in planning for the sustainable use of natural resources. The frameworks used are increasingly complex and interrelated, namely gender as an empirical variable, gender as a relational and structuralizing category and gender as a meaning category. Regardless of traditional or modern land use practice, our three examples support the perception of the gendered nature of land use knowledge, and clearly demonstrate how the Akwé: Kon Voluntary Guidelines on gender considerations and gender-based analysis can be connected to participatory GIS.
