In Arctic and northern communities, livelihoods and land use depend
heavily on natural resources. Decision-making processes around the
use of natural resources are often contested and given their
importance to these communities the participation of local
stakeholders is vital. This timely book presents practices that
have been developed with key stakeholders to improve the collection
and utilization of locally relevant knowledge in land use planning.
Chapters illustrate how indigenous and local knowledge (ILK) can be
made spatially explicit by using, for example, participatory GIS.
Focusing on countries including Greenland, Iceland, Faroe Islands,
Ireland, Finland, Norway and Sweden, this book pays particular
attention to the recognized challenges of these regions, including
the relationships between local and national actors and indigenous
and other local populations.Sharing Knowledge for Land Use
Management will be a key resource for students and researchers of
geography, planning, regional and tourism studies as well as
planning authorities and consultants, offering new ideas and tools
for the inclusion of local knowledge in decision making processes.
