As an answer to the topic, "Does local, national, and international governance have a primary role in shaping the resilience of local ecological knowledge?" we explore the context of governance and wild food plant (WFP) value chains in Brazil. We chose to focus on WFP value chains because they are often deeply embedded with local ecological knowledge. We argue that: (1) the development or abandonment of public policies can significantly boost or hinder these value chains; (2) WFP harvesters face challenges in accessing national public policies that could support and promote these value chains; and (3) Brazilian policies must consider the specific land ownership issues affecting WFP harvesting communities. Additionally, we will discuss the main challenges in promoting and strengthening WFP value chains and how governance can address these issues.
作为对“地方、国家和国际治理在塑造地方生态知识的复原力方面是否具有首要作用?”这一主题的回应,我们探讨了巴西治理与野生食用植物(WFP)价值链的背景情况。我们选择聚焦于WFP价值链,因为它们常常与地方生态知识紧密相连。我们认为:(1)公共政策的制定或废止能够显著促进或阻碍这些价值链;(2)WFP采集者在获取能够支持和促进这些价值链的国家公共政策方面面临挑战;(3)巴西的政策必须考虑影响WFP采集社区的具体土地所有权问题。此外,我们将讨论在促进和加强WFP价值链方面的主要挑战,以及治理如何解决这些问题。
