| 英文摘要: | Graciela M. Rusch, Rogerio Martins Mauricio, Enrique Murgueitio, Sonia Ospina, Milton Rivera Rojas, Verónica E. Rusch, Dalia Sánchez, Antonio Solarte, Jiska van Dijk and Cristóbal Villanueva, 2014. Knowledge networks on the use of biodiversity for sustainable livestock production systems in Latin America - A model platform for capacity building. – NINA Report 1060. 35 pp. Knowledge networks are self-organized structures where knowledge generation and exchange
take place, thereby providing a basis which capacity building programs can build on by facilitating
activities that promote knowledge exchange and mutual learning. The suitability of this
kind of network relies on a series of characteristics. First, the transformation required to achieve
sustainability in food, feed and fiber production needs to address the socio-ecological complexity
of these systems. Lessons learned from experiences in the past indicate that the problems
of biodiversity management derive from a mindset that oversimplifies and fragments the
understanding of socio-ecological systems. Current views stress the necessity to engage scientists
in all relevant fields of biodiversity and ecosystem services science. Knowledge networks
can have an important role in bringing together a diversity of knowledge sources.
Second, there is a tight linkage between how food production challenges are solved and the
sustainable use and protection of biodiversity, which points to the need of a common understanding
of the challenges of protecting biodiversity and ecosystem service among sectors.
Knowledge networks organized around the problem of social – economic- and ecological sustainability
of food production can play an important role in bridging the communication gap
between decision makers addressing environmental, food production and development challenges.
Third, the challenges about biodiversity and ecosystem services need to be undertaken at the
regional, national and local levels. The lack of a sufficient understanding of the local conditions,
of the challenges and of appropriate solutions that are in agreement with the local needs, are
severe hindrances to successful bilateral aid programs. To be successful, future capacity-building
endeavours need to address the local realities of both knowledge providers and requesters,
and the local capacities to produce and use knowledge. Regional knowledge networks sharing
common challenges have the potential to foster knowledge exchange and mutual learning with
a focus on locally relevant issues.
The network mapping in this report reveals a large number of knowledge provider organizations
that deal with silvopastoral systems as an instrument towards social, economic and environmental
sustainability in the livestock production sector in Latin America. National and regional
projects and international programs have supported coordination and joint implementation activities
that have fostered the organization of local and regional networks but, still, the
knowledge is perceived as fragmented and knowledge holders are largely isolated. There
seems to be a huge potential to foster capacity building through activities that promote
knowledge exchange and mutual learning. The mapping exercise also reveals many
knowledge requesters, particularly from governmental organizations at the national level, and
some at the international level. However, there appears to be an underrepresentation of
knowledge requesters operating at the local level, such as professionals that conduct out-reach
activities, civil organizations (such as farmers organizations) and the private sector. There
seems to be a perception of academic organizations as knowledge providers but not as
knowledge requesters, despite dealing with issues of applied research. |
