Abstract

Values of nature have different forms and are expressed through a variety of ways, depending on the culture and people in focus. Such values influence decisions and policies made about nature, especially regarding conservation and management. Current decision-making predominately focuses on instrumental and economic values of nature, often neglecting diverse and plural values, including intrinsic and relational ones. Additionally, the voice of marginalized communities such as Indigenous People and Local Communities (IPLC), and more so, Indigenous women, is often not recognized, leading to inequitable outcomes. Even though gender has been shown to influence value perceptions, no comprehensive review exists of how it affects values of nature within IPLC. This review aims to close this gap. Through a systematic literature review and thematic analysis, this paper highlights the values of nature and Nature’s Contributions to People held by IPLC and insights of applying a gender lens to existing research in this field. The results indicate a focus on study areas in Asia, South America and Africa, as well as toward forests as ecosystems. The predominant valuation methods include preference assessments and semi-structured interviews. This review shows that IPLC hold diverse values, including instrumental, intrinsic, and relational values. Gendered insights were found to be connected to gendered responsibilities within communities. For example, domestic food products, homegardens, and wild edible plants are often of higher importance to female IPLC, due to their prominent role in household and family care. Research gaps on gendered values have also been shown, especially for religious, spiritual, and cultural heritage values.

从性别角度看土著和地方的自然价值观:文献综述
自然价值观有不同的形式,并根据不同的文化和人群以不同的方式表达。这些价值观影响着有关自然的决策和政策,尤其是在保护和管理方面。当前的决策主要侧重于自然的工具性和经济性价值,往往忽视了多样化和多元化的价值,包括内在价值和关系价值。此外,土著人民和地方社区(IPLC)等边缘化社区,尤其是土著妇女的声音往往得不到认可,从而导致不公平的结果。尽管性别已被证明会影响价值认知,但目前还没有关于性别如何影响 IPLC 自然价值观的全面综述。本综述旨在填补这一空白。通过系统的文献综述和主题分析,本文强调了 IPLC 所持有的自然价值观和自然对人类的贡献,以及将性别视角应用于该领域现有研究的见解。研究结果表明,研究重点集中在亚洲、南美洲和非洲的研究地区,以及作为生态系统的森林。主要的评估方法包括偏好评估和半结构化访谈。综述表明,国际森林覆盖率网络拥有不同的价值,包括工具价值、内在价值和关系价值。性别观点被认为与社区内的性别责任有关。例如,家庭食品、家庭菜园和野生食用植物对于女性 IPLC 而言往往具有更高的重要性,因为她们在家务和家庭照料方面扮演着重要角色。关于性别价值观的研究也存在差距,特别是在宗教、精神和文化遗产价值观方面。
