Despite growing institutional and funding support, little research has been done on how framework conditions shape such collaborations. This study examines how framework conditions of transdisciplinary art-science collaborations influence collaborative dynamics of knowledge integration and contribute to epistemic injustice. Framework conditions refer to circumstances, thus structural and situational factors shaping collaboration, which can enable or constrain it. Epistemic injustice involves knowledge-related injustices, including the exclusion or silencing of knowers. Applying semi-structured interviews and the transdisciplinary storywall method, six Switzerland-based transdisciplinary art-science collaborations addressing climate, ecological or sustainability issues were analysed. The exploratory thematic analysis identified the six key framework conditions of temporality, financing, location, internationality, partnering and outcome, which elicit circumstances creating epistemic injustice. Applying four epistemic injustice dimensions to categorise collaborators' experiences on conditions further, the findings show that these conditions most frequently contribute to participatory and procedural, followed by distributive and then recognition epistemic injustices. Early phases of collaboration were found to be particularly influential in shaping unjust processes. This study suggests the need for greater awareness of injustice among scientists, practitioners and artists and calls for structural adjustments by those shaping or initiating such collaborations. It offers practical recommendations to reduce epistemic injustices and strive for more inclusive and pluralistic knowledge integration and co-creation in art-science contexts, as well as across broader transdisciplinary sustainability efforts to address the climate crisis.</p>","PeriodicalId":44089,"journal":{"name":"Geo-Geography and Environment","volume":"13 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2026-02-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://rgs-ibg.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/geo2.70060","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147320812","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Kountouris","doi":"10.1002/geo2.70063","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1002/geo2.70063","url":null,"abstract":"<p>Fire regimes across East Africa's savanna conservation landscapes increasingly reflect interconnected ecological and biocultural breakdown, reinforcing systemic vulnerabilities. Yet colonially inherited fire suppression and exclusionary tenure arrangements continue to overlook the ecological value of pyrodiversity and the stewardship roles of Indigenous and local actors. This study presents a novel probabilistic systems model for evaluating seven predictive, exploratory, and normative fire management approaches across best-, intermediate-, and worst-case socioeconomic–climate futures. The SAV Belief Network (SAV BN) advances BN modelling by explicitly incorporating system complexity and future uncertainty through systemic feedbacks, bidirectional interactions, and high node complexity, supporting rigorous scenario analysis in data-limited contexts. Grounded in empirical data from the Tsavo Conservation Area, the model reflects relational epistemologies that emphasise human–nature interdependencies and place-based knowledge. No approach proved capable of simultaneously achieving wildfire mitigation, ecological integrity, and livelihood resilience. Most reduced wildfire risk and, under best-case trajectories, improved livelihoods; however, even highly normative approaches only slowed, rather than halted or reversed, ecological degradation. Fire suppression and carbon-oriented strategies focused on above-ground biomass accounting intensified ecological decline, particularly under inequitable futures, while locally conceptualised bottom-up strategies failed to confront entrenched colonial legacies and reproduced exclusionary power structures and degradation narratives. These findings highlight the need to reimagine fire regimes as products of multi-scalar, path-dependent dynamics shaped by institutional erosion, political–economic preferences, and contested land claims. Addressing this complexity requires moving beyond ‘integrated’ or ‘community-based’ framings towards historical institutional and environmental justice approaches that centre representation and equity.</p>","PeriodicalId":44089,"journal":{"name":"Geo-Geography and Environment","volume":"13 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2026-02-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://rgs-ibg.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/geo2.70063","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147269032","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The distribution of responsibility across governance actors at multiple scales has resulted in the development of different climate change strategies. Increasingly, these strategies draw upon a place-based approach, as this supports the development of strategies that better capture local contexts. Yet, when developing place-based strategies, there is the need for early, meaningful and ongoing engagement with a diverse and extensive range of publics to fully capture local contexts. Drawing upon insights obtained through workshops conducted with local publics in Cambridge, UK, this paper unpacks tensions between publics and governance actors in relation to Cambridge City Council's 2021–2026 Climate Change Strategy. Utilising a relational place-based framing, the paper discusses: (1) the misalignment between the strategy and the priorities of publics; (2) the perceived disjuncture in how the strategy is being implemented; and (3) approaches for addressing the tensions identified. The paper closes with empirically informed recommendations for developing local climate strategies, which are of relevance for any context whereby (local) strategies are being developed and implemented.</p>","PeriodicalId":44089,"journal":{"name":"Geo-Geography and Environment","volume":"13 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2026-02-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://rgs-ibg.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/geo2.70059","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147288248","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This requires confronting the spatio-cultural dimensions of fossil fuels, including how they have become embedded in those locations most closely tied to the fossil fuel industry. This article integrates insights from energy geographies with Hein's concept of petroleumscape to unpack how oil is embedded in Stavanger, Norway's oil capital. This article argues that attention must be paid to local petroleumscapes in order to better unpack how fossil fuel dependency becomes spatially embedded in locally differentiated ways, while simultaneously reinforcing a global petroleumscape. Through qualitative participatory mapping, the article visualises perceived spatialities of petroleum by Stavanger's citizens. Empirically, the article finds that although petroleum is seen as at once hyper-visible and obscured, the city is characterised by a petro-omnipresence. Furthermore, the article finds that petroleum produces a particular social space through the funding of public goods, while also producing social inequalities that are experienced spatially through unequal housing patterns and leisure activities. These insights contribute to uncovering the obscured, yet all-encompassing influences of petroleum on social–ecological spaces in a highly oil-dependent and oil-producing region.</p>","PeriodicalId":44089,"journal":{"name":"Geo-Geography and Environment","volume":"13 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2026-02-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://rgs-ibg.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/geo2.70056","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147268883","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
