要旨:
Scientists have repeatedly
argued that
transformative, mul
tiscale
global scenarios
are
needed
as tools
in the quest to halt the
decline of biodiversity and
achieve
sustainability
goals. As a first step towards achieving this,
the
expert
s who parti
cipated in the
s
cenarios
and
m
odels
expert group
of the Intergovernmental Science
-
Policy Platform on Biodiversity
and Ecosystem Services (IPBES) entered into an iterative, participatory process t
hat led to
the development of the Nature Futures Framework (N
FF)
. The NFF
is a heuristic tool that
captures diverse, positive relationships of humans with nature in the form of a triangle. It
can be used both as a boundary object
for continuously
open
ing
up more plural
perspectives in the creation of
desirable
nature scenarios and as a
n actionable
framework
for developing consistent nature scenarios across multiple scales. Here, w
e describe the
methods employed to
develop
the NFF and how this
fits into
a l
onger
-
term process to
create transformative, multiscale s
cenarios for nature. We argue that the contribution of
the NFF is two
-
fold: a) its ability to hold a
plurality
of perspectives on what is
desirable
,
which enables the development of joint goals and visions and recognises the possible
convergence and synerg
ies of measures to achieve these and b), its
multi
-
scale
functionality for elaborating scenarios and models that can inform decision
-
making at
relevant levels, making it applicable across specific places and perspectives on nature. If
humanity is to achiev
e its goal of a more sustainable and prosperous future rooted in a
flourishing nature, it is critical to open up a space for more plural perspectives of human
-
nature
relationships. As the global community sets out to develop new goals for
biodiversity, the NFF can be used as a
navigation tool helping to make diverse, desirable futures are possible.
