Cutting Edge Lecture in Science: Towards a reciprocal environmental governance
By Nicolas聽Kosoy (Associate Professor, Natural Resource Sciences, 缅北强奸).聽聽We are in urgent need of an agreement novel in聽spirit and unheard of in our times, one that calls for the unity of all species聽in our planet, one聽that embraces the singularity of our universe, the聽evolutionary history of our species, and the common path that we, human and聽non-human聽species, share in our one and only spaceship. I propose that such an agreement be based on alternative governance frameworks聽stemming from the notion that humans are聽part of nature and hence placing the concepts of embeddedness and relational聽inter-dependence at the core of any policy聽recommendation to manage socio-ecosystems. This talk will cover some of the experiences on alternative environmental governance in the past, present and imagined future to draw basic lessons for fairly sharing our planet with other species.
