| description | Governance refers to how decisions and rules, as well as decision-making rules, are made and by whom. This brief on landscape governance focuses specifically on the decision-making processes that seek to create and enforce socially binding agreements regarding people’s interactions with one another and the landscape around them (Matson, Clark, and Andersson 2016). Landscape governance and its agreements shape how people treat each other and how they use local natural resources. Landscape governance agreements can address concrete questions, such as: How much forestland can a landowner clear each year? When are farmers allowed to burn crop residues? Where may pastoral groups take their cattle? and What is the punishment for breaking a given rule? The agreements, if achieved, may also define who has the right to participate in governance decision-making and who enforces the rules. Figure 1 below provides a simplified overview of the different parts of the landscape governance process, how it shapes local decisions and actions, and how it is influenced by decisions at higher levels of political authority. |
