We engage in participatory science and open science, as well as disseminate our results as broadly as possible, to bridge the gap between science and society. We regularly inform about our Impact activities and related outputs in this section of our website.
A political ecology of habitat banking in Spain, supervised by Dr. Sara Maestre-Andrés and Prof. Esteve Corbera (ICTA-UAB).
We are looking for an experienced postdoctoral researcher to lead the development and calculus of a Rural Vulnerability Index in rural Spain.
Sergio Villamayor-Tomás and Esteve Corbera from ICTA-UAB have been awarded with a research grant from La Caixa Foundation to study processes of socio-vulnerability vulnerability in rural Spain.
Doctoral INPhINIT Fellowships Programme – Incoming. Call for applications 2021
Payments for Ecosystem Services (PES) initiatives often aim to incentivize the joint adoption of forest protection and sustainable management practices. This research in Chiapas, Mexico, shows the limits of PES when parachuted into a context of uneven land tenure, weak collective action and contested leaderships.
A new special issue in Development and Change, guest edited by Laseg member Esteve Corbera, collects evidence on the implementation of Payments for Ecosystem Services programmes and shows how local people adopt such exogenous, and 'neoliberal' conservation approach to transform their lives and institutions in unexpected and sometimes advantageous ways.
