Upplevelser mellan människa och natur : En kvalitativ studie om äldres tillgänglighet till grönområdenLindgren, Elin January 2023 (has links)
Ekosystemtjänster har varit ett sätt att försöka värdera naturens tjänster till oss människor men har samtidigt bidragit till en separation mellan natur och människa. Det är ett kvantitativt ramverk som har svårigheter att ta hänsyn till de sociokulturella värdena. Studier menar nu på att det krävs mer forskning kring andra sätt att se på människors relation till naturen bortsett från den binära dikotomin människa-natur. Denna studie undersöker därför hur äldre konceptualiserar naturen och vad för upplevelsevärden de söker i ett naturområde samt vilka hinder och motivationer de upplever inför att ta sig ut till naturen. På så sätt lyfts olika faktorer som påverkar äldres tillgänglighet till grönområden, till exempel deras relation till naturen. Studien är utförd i den naturtäta kommunen Tyresö för att också utforska närheten till naturens betydelse i frågor om tillgänglighet. Intervjuer gjordes med 10 pensionerade personer och resultatet presenteras sedan efter konceptualisering av natur, värdering av natur och den upplevda tillgängligheten till naturen. Upplevelsevärden används för att tematisera vilka kvalitéer som de söker hos ett naturområde och platskänsla och platsidentitet analyserar känslorna kopplade till naturen som rör sig över tid och rum. Resultatet presenterar många olika faktorer som påverkar tillgängligheten där deltagarnas relation till naturen står i centrum.

Governance, poverty and natural resources management : a case study of the Niger DeltaBakare, Ibrahim Adeolu Owolabi January 2012 (has links)
This study employs ethnographic research to investigate the extent to which local governance affects both poverty and natural resources management in the Delta region. The research develops a framework for governance of natural resources to understand the daily practices of different actors within the local context using informal observation and interviews. In applying the framework, the study places emphasis on resources for governance, actors' agency, arrangements of access to resources and governance outcomes in the Delta region. Evidence from the study shows that while the state and corporate actors only contextualise resources in terms of economic value, local actors interprete resources beyond economic value to incorporate symbolic and socio-culturally constructed values linked with historic values. The study also identified relational, routine practices and structural factors which differently shape actors' agency for resources management. The context which shapes different arrangements of access to local resources by actors varies. These arrangements are subject to negotiation, power differences and socio-cultural factors. The findings related to governance outcomes reveal both positive (favourable) and negative (unfavourable) outcomes for the livelihood of different actors. The study concludes by exploring implications for local governance in order to address poverty and enhance optimal resource management in the Delta region.

Governance, poverty and natural resources management. A case study of the Niger DeltaBakare, Ibrahim A.O. January 2012 (has links)
This study employs ethnographic research to investigate the extent to
which local governance affects both poverty and natural resources
management in the Delta region. The research develops a framework for
governance of natural resources to understand the daily practices of different
actors within the local context using informal observation and interviews.
In applying the framework, the study places emphasis on resources for
governance, actors¿ agency, arrangements of access to resources and
governance outcomes in the Delta region. Evidence from the study shows
that while the state and corporate actors only contextualise resources in
terms of economic value, local actors interprete resources beyond economic
value to incorporate symbolic and socio-culturally constructed values linked
with historic values. The study also identified relational, routine practices and
structural factors which differently shape actors¿ agency for resources
management. The context which shapes different arrangements of access to
local resources by actors varies. These arrangements are subject to
negotiation, power differences and socio-cultural factors. The findings related
to governance outcomes reveal both positive (favourable) and negative
(unfavourable) outcomes for the livelihood of different actors.
The study concludes by exploring implications for local governance in
