WINS Seminar on November 20, 2014 at 3pm (ct.), IRI THESys

Dear colleagues
We welcome you to the session of the WINS Seminar series (Seminar of the
Berlin Workshop in Institutional Analysis of Social-Ecological Systems) on
November 20, 2014.

Paula Novo (James Hutton Institute, UK): 
Market & non-market based provision of soil ecosystem services in Africa


Paula Novo is a researcher in the Social, Economic and Geographical Science
Group at The James Hutton Institute in Aberdeen, Scotland. Her current
research focuses on the links between the benefits humans derived from
nature, values and human wellbeing. 

About the presentation:
Based on a systematic literature review, the presentation will discuss the
outcomes from market and non-marked based interventions in both the
provision of soil ecosystem services, such as crop production and carbon
sequestration, and increased wellbeing in Africa. The presentation will
focus mainly on issues of equity, trade-offs and livelihoods. 

It will take place on: 

Thursday, November 20, 2014 3pm (ct.)

The mission of The Berlin Workshop in Institutional Analysis of
Social-Ecological Systems (WINS) is to advance communication between
academic communities (economists, political scientists, geographers,
sociologists, anthropologists, psychologists, and others) that study the
role of institutions and governance structures in social-ecological systems
and their transformation. It is an open platform for both advanced and young
scholars to work symbiotically. WINS is based at Humboldt University's
Integrative Research Institute on Transformations of Human-Environment
Systems (IRI THESys). The overarching scholarly aim is to facilitate the
accumulation of knowledge and the development of new, interdisciplinary and
problem-oriented analytical theories and methods, bridging the multiplicity
of approaches that have been established over time. Integrative discourses,
interdisciplinary research and an advanced studies program will serve as
conduits towards this goal. The ultimate purpose is to strengthen policy
making through enhanced dialogue with practitioners and stakeholders. For
more information please see here: https://www.wins.hu-berlin.de/

Berlin’s environmental research community is among the most prolific in
Europe and the world and we want to take advantage of that. Thus, throughout
the 14 sessions of the series we will introduce the work of prominent
scholars from Research Institutes that center around Berlin. Additionally,
we have visits by scholars from other European Universities. 

“WINS Seminar” sessions will take place every Thursday, 3pm, during the
winter semester (except for the public holidays). 
We are looking forward to inspiring presentations and productive exchanges.

Organiser of the WINS Seminar series
