Policy, if sufficently inclusive, consultative and consistent, can become the keystone of integrated and holistic landscape governance. &nbsp;Overcoming silos, even those that exist in policy circles, is an essential step in reconciling the needs, rights and aspirations of different sectors and communities. &nbsp;For government, this may involve more regulatory intervention or, in other cases, a willingness to let issues find resolution in local contexts freed of overbearing administration. &nbsp;([https://news.globallandscapesforum.org/10251/qa-increasing-demand-can-met-sustainable-forest-management/ Sustainable forest management])

The issue of climate change sits at the heart of the concerns about sustainability and mututal benefit that govern thinking about landscapes. &nbsp;It embodies the issue of making a future habitable for all, including those with the most to gain in the short term from the unsustainable exploitation of landscapes for whatever reason. &nbsp;As an issue rooted in a time-consistency problem, it is for all concerned parties to exorcise short-termism under the umbrella of scientific rigor.

How to contribute to this landscape and energy encyclopedia

Energypedia is an online platform for collaborative knowledge exchange on renewable energy and energy access issues in the context of development cooperation. It is open and free to use.  This portal aggregates the wide range of landscape-related articles found on this encyclopedia and Landscape News. Those looking to take part can start here with this quick and simple introduction.




Overview of Landscapes

  • What is the Global Landscapes Forum?

The Global Landscapes Forum (GLF) is a movement that puts communities first in addressing landscape-level issues, rooted in the framework of the Landscape Approach. Having connected 3,000 organizations and 25,000 people through summits in Warsaw, Lima, London, Paris, Marrakech and Jakarta, along with a further 32 million online, the GLF has become the world’s largest science-led platform on sustainable land use. 

With science and traditional knowledge at the core, GLF outreach, events and projects are designed not only to spark dialogue, but also follow-through to impact in addressing some of the most complex and multi-stakeholder problems facing our earth and our communities.

Recognizing the multitude of diverse objecties found in landscapes - food, livelihoods, health, energy, biodiversity, business development, trade, climate regulation and water - and the need for holistic approaches, the GLF is founded on four principles, aiming to engage 1 billion people: connecting, sharing, learning and acting.[1]
