Multi-Level Governance on the Forest-Agricultural Interface

Globally, the commons are affected by many
challenges such as a growing
population, progressive climate change and
climate variability posing both threats and
opportunities, land use change and an increasing
pressure on already scarce resources, such as
water and forests
In this context the need to understand how to
devise adequate governance systems that reduce
pressure or possible conflict and that sustain
these shared resources is a priority in the research
and policy agendas
The Context
3. ï Multi-level governance offers a space to
âemphasize the importance of working across scales, and
often across disciplines, to solve environmental problemsâ
(Larson and Lewis-Mendoza, 2012).
ï Ideally, natural resource governance and management
should be integrated at the landscape scale
âThe level at which many ecosystem processes operate
and at which interactions among environment and
development objectives are often mediatedâ (OâNeill et
al.1997, as cited in Milder et al., 2012).
Background

4. How do multi-level governance arrangements and
institutions support sustainable landscape level
natural resource management and livelihoods?
(discussion raised by Milder et al, (2012)
ï In the context of two contrasting landscapes :
- Colombian Amazon
(relatively slow change)
- Peruvian Amazon
(shifting agricultural frontier - very rapid
change)
Aim
4
9. How do multi-level governance arrangements and
institutions support sustainable landscape level natural
resource management and livelihoods?
1. To define landscape level management in each case
study site. Identify key challenges in achieving
sustainable landscape level natural resource
management and challenges that are preventing
relevant institutions from supporting this outcome
(e.g. power relations within, how resource systems
interact with each other, resource competition).
2. To map and characterize the governance
arrangements relevant to landscape level natural
resource management (including vertical and
horizontal linkages). Special emphasis will be given to
identify and characterize meso-level institutions.
Subsidiary Objectives -1-

10. 3. To identify and analyze the cross-scale policy
externalities within the fisheries/watershed
management in the Colombian Amazon and the
forest-agriculture interface in the Peruvian Amazon.
4. To analyse how the governance arrangements and
cross-scale institutional dynamics do/do not support
adaptive management processes at the landscape
level.
5. Identify and analyse how power relationships within
or across institutions influence their effectiveness in
natural resource management .

Main practical goal
Contribute with key insights/findings to:
ï Design governance systems for natural resource
management that help to overcome conflicts
amongst resource users at the landscape level, as
well as support the opportunities for collective action
ï Build effective institutions for cross-sector planning
ï Support the establishment of sustainable multi-
functional (people-centered) landscapes
Who will benefit from this?
ï Landscape stakeholders and resource users
ï Institutions working across the landscape on natural
resource management
What is the expected outcome?
