  1. Knowledge, Information and Communication for Integrated Landscape Management Abigail Hart, EcoAgriculture Partners 24-26 September 2011 Inception Workshop for the Project “Community Development and Knowledge Management for the Satoyama Initiative” (COMDEKS)

  2. Knowledge Management for Integrated Landscape Management • Landscape approaches engage local leaders and stakeholders in knowledge generation and communication for social learning and innovation. • Knowledge generated and used in landscape activities supports adaptive collaborative management within the landscape and contributes to national and global knowledge objectives of SGP and Satoyama. • Knowledge management systems are designed in concert with landscape leadership teams and key stakeholders. • Indigenous knowledge is an invaluable asset, capturing and applying it is a priority.

  3. Tools for generating, communicating and applying knowledge in the Landscape Measures Resource Center (LMRC) • Conceptual tools - aid in thinking and communicating across sectors, disciplines, indigenous/science knowledge systems • Communication and social learning tools – fosterinteraction among diverse people and organizations involved in visualizing the future of their landscape and improving its performance • Scoring tools – provide a qualitative, numeric measure of how well or poorly phenomena in a landscape are performing relative to their potential, and/or to one another • Planning tools – help harmonize disparate goals and stakeholder interests and balance economic development and conservation initiatives in a landscape

  4. Tools for generating, communicating and applying knowledge in LMRC (continued) • Data collection tools – measure conservation, production, livelihood and institutional performance indicators • Gender analysis tools - help assess women’s access to productive assets and progress toward gender equality • Spatial analysis tools – help track how different phenomena vary across a landscape and assess changing patterns • Trend analysis tools – help analyze trade-offs and synergies among diverse goals that stakeholders have for landscapes

  5. Examples of knowledge generation and communication in practice in the LMRC • LMRC Case Studies • Burundi • Congo • Kenya • Madagascar • Uganda • India • Indonesia • Philippines • Brazil • Columbia • Costa Rica • Honduras • Nicaragua

  6. Dealing with data – what kind will be collected and in what format will it be kept? Storing data? Format? Type? Global Level (esp. IPSI) National Level (NSCs, gov’t) Programme Level (country office, partners) Landscape Level (across and within communities)

  7. Communicating data – passing along knowledge in the best way possible What do they need? How will they best understand? Global Level (esp. IPSI) National Level (NSCs, gov’t) Programme Level (country office, partners) Landscape Level (across and within communities)
