Governança da restauração florestal da paisagem no Brasil: desafios e oportunidades
Abstract
Brazil plays a significant role in distinguished global agreements on forest conservation and climate change. The implementation of these agreements requires governance arrangements in several fields, such as Forest Landscape Restoration (FLR). It is expected that FLR governance systems generate positive results in the commitment of social actors, development of management tools, and upscaling of projects and programs in the different landscapes and biomes in the country. In this context, this study aims to trace the state of knowledge of conceptual models of governance of Forest Landscape Restoration, using a systematic review of the international literature to organize a theoretical-conceptual framework applied to FLR governance systems in Brazil. The results show that Forest Landscape Restoration initiatives based on collaborative governance exist in Brazil, mainly in the Atlantic Forest and the Amazon. However, there is still a gap in research focusing specifically on FLR governance beyond case studies. The advancement of this research field can contribute to the improvement of social learning in FLR networks and governance models under development in Brazil.
