March 23, 2015 at 11:38AM Territorial management of the environment: putting stakeholders centre-stage

How can we design territory-scale organic waste management systems that are acceptable to all the stakeholders, whether producers or consumers of that waste? How can we reconcile the often diverging views those stakeholders have of the environment? What method should be used to asses the impact of such management systems on the environment? To answer these questions, a team from CIRAD demonstrated the necessity of taking account of stakeholders' views and developed a new representation framework based on a conception of the environment that is neither techno- nor ecocentric, but anthropocentric.
