项目摘要
Reforestation has been identified as a potentially powerful Nature-based solution (NbS) to climate mitigation and adaptation challenges, whilst supporting biodiversity and other sustainable development goals. However, many potential risks with reforestation have also been identified, including trade-offs with food security and biodiversity. Despite these concerns, multiple actors are already pursuing reforestation strategies in tropical agricultural landscapes. In particular, actors in commodity value chains, such as cocoa and coffee, are making commitments to agroforest-based reforestation. These actors have stated that they are facing challenges in the sustainable delivery of these pledges. Here we identify a knowledge exchange (KE) gap between practitioners and scientists: how to implement successful and sustainable reforestation as an NbS in tropical agricultural landscapes.To fill this gap, this fellowship would facilitate KE between scientists, conservation practitioners and industry, in cocoa and coffee value chains, building on relationships already established by the applicant William Thompson and the host, the Nature-based Solutions Initiative (NbSI), U. Oxford. State-of-the-art knowledge regarding agroforestry and reforestation, as well as new knowledge generated from the KE process, will be packaged under the umbrella of the High Agricultural Reforestation Potential (HARP) Toolkit. The KE process will also lead to establishing a set of best practice principles for reforestation in smallholder agriculture contexts.We propose a dual case study of cocoa in Ghana and coffee in Vietnam, two leading commodity producing countries with high deforestation risk but also high reforestation potential. These complementary cases are selected to maximise the usability of the toolkit across geographies and commodities. Overall, we will adopt a transdisciplinary approach, whereby the framing of challenges in reforestation and the development of the toolkit will be performed jointly between stakeholders, including; chocolate companies (Lindt), certifiers (Rainforest Alliance, 4C), project developers (Plan Vivo), NGOs (IDH), farmer organisations, finance (Green Finance Institute) and scientists (NbSI, Oxford, KE fellows, NERC researchers), as well as international collaborators (ETH Zurich, Queensland). Phase 1 of the fellowship will convene an "Agroforestry and Reforestation" KE network consisting i) Overarching cross-commodity platform (semi-virtual/UK), ii) Cocoa value chain platform (Ghana w/ KNUST, IITA) and iii) Coffee value chain platform (Vietnam w/ CIAT, IDH). Phase 2 will co-design and test the HARP toolkit with stakeholders. Phase 3 will synthesise a set of best practice principles for reforestation in smallholder agricultural landscapes.The HARP toolkit will enable planning of agroforest-based reforestation interventions at a landscape scale by a consortium of actors. The toolkit will allow for the evaluation of different agroforest and reforestation (e.g. patch enrichment, riparian buffers) configurations against user defined criteria (e.g. farmer income, carbon sequestration). Network members have already been identified as HARP Toolkit testers (IDH, Rainforest Alliance, Plan Vivo). A key impact of this fellowship, therefore, would be to translate NERC and NERC remit science to enhance the sustainability of reforestation interventions in cocoa and coffee value chains. More widely, the "best practice principles" can inform the creation of reforestation commitments by supply chain companies (e.g. Lindt), as well as policies by producing and consuming country governments (e.g. via UK Global Resources Initiative). In addition, NERC researchers and KE fellows will benefit from the KE process by building understanding of reforestation actors' scientific needs. We intend that the KE process can be sustainable and that the network will be self-maintaining after the fellowship.
重新造林已被确定为应对气候减缓和适应挑战的潜在强大的基于自然的解决方案(NbS),同时支持生物多样性和其他可持续发展目标。然而,重新造林的许多潜在风险也已被确定,包括与粮食安全和生物多样性的权衡。尽管存在这些担忧,但多个行动者已经在热带农业景观中推行重新造林战略。特别是,可可和咖啡等商品价值链中的行为体正在承诺以农林业为基础的再造林。这些行为体表示,他们在可持续履行这些承诺方面面临挑战。在这里,我们确定了从业者和科学家之间的知识交流(KE)差距:如何在热带农业景观中实施成功和可持续的再造林作为一种NbS。为了填补这一空白,该奖学金将在申请人威廉·汤普森(William Thompson)和主办方牛津大学自然解决方案倡议组织(NbSI)已经建立的关系的基础上,促进科学家、保护从业者和可可和咖啡价值链中的工业之间的KE。关于农林业和再造林的最新知识,以及从KE过程中产生的新知识,将被打包在高农业再造林潜力工具包(HARP)的保护伞下。KE进程还将为小农农业背景下的再造林建立一套最佳实践原则。我们建议对加纳的可可和越南的咖啡进行双重案例研究,这两个主要的大宗商品生产国森林砍伐风险高,但再造林潜力也很大。选择这些补充案例是为了最大限度地提高工具包在不同地区和商品之间的可用性。总体而言,我们将采取跨学科的方法,通过这种方法,重新造林的挑战框架和工具包的开发将在利益相关者之间共同进行,包括;巧克力公司(瑞士莲),认证机构(热带雨林联盟,4C),项目开发商(Vivo计划),非政府组织(IDH),农民组织,金融(绿色金融研究所)和科学家(NbSI,牛津大学,KE研究员,NERC研究人员),以及国际合作者(苏黎世联邦理工学院,昆士兰)。该奖学金的第一阶段将召集一个“农林业和再造林”网络,包括1)总体跨商品平台(半虚拟/英国),2)可可价值链平台(加纳/ KNUST, IITA)和3)咖啡价值链平台(越南/ CIAT, IDH)。第二阶段将与利益相关者共同设计和测试HARP工具包。第三阶段将综合一套在小农农业景观中重新造林的最佳实践原则。HARP工具包将使参与者联盟能够在景观规模上规划以农林业为基础的再造林干预措施。该工具包将允许根据用户定义的标准(如农民收入、碳固存)评估不同的农林业和再造林(如斑块富集、河岸缓冲)配置。网络成员已被确定为HARP工具包测试者(IDH, Rainforest Alliance, Plan Vivo)。因此,该奖学金的一个关键影响将是将NERC和NERC的职权科学转化为提高可可和咖啡价值链中重新造林干预措施的可持续性。更广泛地说,“最佳实践原则”可以为供应链公司(如瑞士莲)制定再造林承诺提供信息,也可以为生产国和消费国政府(如通过英国全球资源倡议)制定政策提供信息。此外,NERC的研究人员和KE研究员将通过建立对重新造林参与者科学需求的理解,从KE过程中受益。我们希望KE的过程能够持续下去,并且在奖学金结束后网络能够自我维持。
