In 2014, the Third International Conference on the resilience of social-ecological systems chose the theme "resilience and development: mobilizing for transformation." The conference aimed specifically at fostering an encounter between the experiences and thinking focused on the issue of resilience through a social and ecological system perspective...
This paper focuses on the development and meaning of the stewardship concept in the current environmental science, ecology and biodiversity conservation literature. Stewardship broadly refers to a form of collaborative planning and responsible management of the environment through sustainable natural resource management practices that respect ecosy...
The sharp end of climate change is being, and will continue to be, experienced at the local and personal scale. How changing patterns of hazards interplay with local landscapes is an important focus of risk management, both in understanding how place-based risk is perceived and in identifying how local populations would like these risks to be manag...
In summary, in the SES resilience domain, it is assumed that SES continuously reorganize while undergoing change. Resilience is not a question of whether a SES can come back to a former state but rather whether the SES remains the same or has become something else. To address this question, we use the body of research on identity, which tells us th...

Posons la question autour de nous : « pourquoi les gens ne changent-ils pas ? ». La réponse sera le plus souvent : « parce qu’ils sont trop attachés à leurs privilèges, traditions, acquis, relations, cultures, terroirs, etc. Ils ne changeront jamais ! ». Cette théorie qui veut que l’attachement empêche le changemen...
À partir des années 1970, plusieurs groupes de chercheurs, dont ceux qui fondèrent la revue Natures Sciences Sociétés , ont eu l’idée qu’il était nécessaire, pour répondre à la question environnementale, de dépasser les frontières disciplinaires. Nous proposons de comparer ici trois de ces communautés interdisciplinaires que nous qualifions de comm...
There is consensus in the field of sustainability science that a collaboration between plural knowledge systems is needed to address matters of concern and to bridge the knowledge/action gap. The field has made many important advances in this regard and a particular focus has been on developing approaches that facilitate processes for generating ac...

Ce chapitre vise à ouvrir notre réflexion sur l’opportunité que constitue la redéfinition de notre rapport au vivant, aux autres et à nos territoires pour changer nos pratiques et «infiltrer » les politiques publiques.
Quel positionnement vis-à-vis de la diversité du vivant en matière de coopération territoriale?
Plutôt que de préserver la diversi...
Malgré l’amélioration qu’ils apportent à la production agricole, les périmètres irrigués génèrent des risques sociaux, économiques et écologiques importants, qui questionnent leurs impacts effectifs sur la vulnérabilité sociale, économique, environnementale et alimentaire des populations bénéficiaires. La réflexion sur la construction de la vulnéra...
An on-farm agronomic survey was carried out, at the field, farm and catchment levels, to understand the dynamics of the risk of soil erosion in a watershed displaying a rapid diversification of cropping systems and differentiation of family farms. The results were integrated into a researcher agent-based model linked to a geographic information sys...
The cultural ecosystem services (CES) construct has evolved to accommodate multiple worldviews, knowledge systems and conceptualizations of nature and values, including relational and mental health values.

études de cas présentées en a...
In coastal areas around the world, actors are responding to multiple global changes by implementing adaptation plans, often
confined within a single-focal perspective with few explanations of targeted changes and cross-scale interactions. To better anticipate
the raising coordination issues and the potential feedbacks generated by adaptation in the...
In the context of global change, the South of Gard coastal region in southern France is building up an adaptation plan in order to reduce vulnerability to several external drivers, including demographic growth, sea rise, and a new environmental directive from the
European Union. However, adaptations which would r educe the vulnerability of some sta...
Numerous authors have emphasized the role of culture in relation to the resilience of individuals, SES, and communities, which has given rise to the concept of cultural resilience. This concept is, however, ambiguous: is it a question of the resilience of culture itself, or resilience through culture? The second is considered most frequently: cultu...
L’article analyse les correspondances et les décalages entre la pensée
sur la résilience dans la littérature et la façon dont on traite de résilience en matière de développement et de sécurité alimentaire dans les projets et dans les guides pratiques d’évaluation. Six paradoxes sont soulevés à propos : de la compréhension ou de la mesure de la rési...

Territorial development reshapes public action by involving citizens in the choice,
management and monitoring of public services, and by promoting the representation
of populations that are usually excluded (Tonneau et al., 2011). The corollary is
an engagement by citizens that goes beyond the traditional reliance on political or
administrative rep...
The purpose of this chapter is to summarize how agent-based modelling and simulation (ABMS) is being used in the area of environmental management.

Deux écoles de la résilience, différentes mais complémentaires L e changement étant devenu la norme, le terme résilience est passé dans le langage courant. Il est notamment uti-lisé par les acteurs du développement et de l'humanitaire pour donner un cadre de mise en oeuvre du développement durable des régions touchées par des crises à répétition :...
The purpose of the experiment presented in this article is to design
and test a model that integrates this diversity of stakeholder perspective about available land tenure regulations and their needs to mobilize some of them, partially or totally.In line with diffusion and complexity research (Epstein and Axtell, 1996; Axelrod, 1997; Jager et al.,...
Although Human African Trypanosomiasis is largely considered to be in the process of extinction today, the persistence of human and animal reservoirs, as well as the vector, necessitates a laborious elimination process. In this context, modeling could be an effective tool to evaluate the ability of different public health interventions to control t...
On observe depuis les années 2000 la volonté des acteurs de la sécurité alimentaire de rapprocher résilience et sécurité alimentaire. Ce rapprochement n'apparaît cependant pas si évident au vu de la diversité d'éléments de langages utilisés pour les associer. Cet article vise donc à faire un état des lieux de l'association de ces notions, voire de...
