Abstract
ABSTRACT REDD+ as a mitigation mechanism requires the engagement of various actors within a paradoxical institutional logic. Tunisia’s commitment to the UN-REDD Program represents an opportunity to reduce its GHG emissions, but also to ensure sustainable forest management, especially as the country is considered to be one of the most vulnerable to climate change in the Mediterranean. Tunisia mostly possesses dry forests, on which some 10% of the poor population in the country depends. Taking into account both the complexity/hybridity of REDD+, the purpose of this article is to explore co-creating social value practices in the case of REDD+ pluralistic governance from the point of view of 1) appropriation/engagement of the local population/stakeholders, and 2) adaptability. Based on a Research–Action (RA) for almost a year (from May 2015- to March 2016), the findings of this study highlight that REDD+ adaptability depends on the transformative activities and the engaging critical reflexive through a collective learning process. Our main contribution is to showcase the interest of the RA process in the conceptualization of REDD+ pluralistic governance such as a sense-making process, by offering new practices co-creators of social value, based on translation, negotiation, active engagement, and multi-actor appropriation.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Sustainable Forestry publishes peer-reviewed, original research on forest science. While the emphasis is on sustainable use of forest products and services, the journal covers a wide range of topics from the underlying biology and ecology of forests to the social, economic and policy aspects of forestry. Short communications and review papers that provide a clear theoretical, conceptual or methodological contribution to the existing literature are also included in the journal.
Common topics covered in the Journal of Sustainable Forestry include:
• Ecology, management, recreation, restoration and silvicultural systems of all forest types, including urban forests
• All aspects of forest biology, including ecophysiology, entomology, pathology, genetics, tree breeding, and biotechnology
• Wood properties, forest biomass, bioenergy, and carbon sequestration
• Simulation modeling, inventory, quantitative methods, and remote sensing
• Environmental pollution, fire and climate change impacts, and adaptation and mitigation in forests
• Forest engineering, economics, human dimensions, natural resource policy, and planning
Journal of Sustainable Forestry provides an international forum for dialogue between research scientists, forest managers, economists and policy and decision makers who share the common vision of the sustainable use of natural resources.
