Landscape approaches have been identified as a way to address conservation and development issues in biodiversityrich tropical areas. The author conducted a literature review of 51 case studies selected by an independent analyst to evaluate how these approaches have been applied. The case studies...


Pfund, J.L.[Landscape-scale research for conservation and development in the tropics: fighting persisting challenges]Landscape-scale research for conservation and development in the tropics: fighting persisting challenges

The paper investigates the changes in management and trade of non timber forest products (NTFP) in northern uplands of Laos and how they are related to agricultural production from both landscape and livelihoods perspectives. Surveys were conducted in Luang Prabang province with multiple groups o...


Castella, J.C.Thephavanh, M.Vongkhamsao, V.Mouaxeng-Cha, K.Phonphakdy, S.Fitriana, Y.R.Kongay, K.Phaipasith, S.Ferrand, J.Manivanh, V.Pfund, J.L.[Evolving relations between agriculture and forest in Viengkham District, Luang Prabang Province]Evolving relations between agriculture and forest in Viengkham District, Luang Prabang Province

Swidden agriculture is often deemed responsible for deforestation and forest degradation in tropical regions, yet swidden landscapes are commonly not visible on land cover/use maps, making it difficult to prove this assertion. For a future REDD+ scheme, the correct identification of deforestation...


Hett, C.Castella, J.C.Heinimann, A.Messerli, P.Pfund, J.L.[A landscape mosaics approach for characterizing swidden systems from a REDD+ perspective]A landscape mosaics approach for characterizing swidden systems from a REDD+ perspective

The lack of understanding on how to integrate ecological issues into so-called socialecological natural resource management hampers sustainability in tropical forest landscape management. We build upon a comparison of three cases that show inverse gradients of knowledge and perceptions of the env...

Swidden agriculture is often deemed responsible for deforestation and forest degradation in tropical regions, yet swidden landscapes are commonly not visible on land cover/use maps, making it difficult to prove this assertion.

This paper argues that contextual constraints can significantly interfere with the conduct of research and development, and accordingly should be analyzed more honestly. It describes a five country research project, Landscape Mosaics, in which participatory action research (PAR) was intended as o...

We examine five forested landscapes in Africa (Cameroon, Madagascar, and Tanzania) and Asia (Indonesia and Laos) at different stages of landscape change. In all five areas, forest cover (outside of protected areas) continues to decrease despite local people’s recognition of the importance of fore...
