High levels of participation enhance learning. Resilience 2011Aberdeen CES
Participatory approaches are often suggested to increase sustainability and adaptability of conservation programs because they are assumed to build capacity of participants to learn and manage projects. This article compares participatory projects with different styles of management to determine whether increasing the extent or quality of engagement of participants affects the degree to which they learn. The results show that: (1) Participants in all projects learnt something, but the extent of learning was overall highest for projects with greatest engagement; (2) The length of time participants were involved in a project did not influence how much they learned; and (3) a range of factors relating to engagement influenced learning outcomes. The results suggest that if capacity building is a desired outcome of participation, then it pays to invest in high levels of engagement right from the outset. More research to help understand the processes involved in enhancing learning is required.
This document discusses best practices for engaging end users in research. It recommends starting stakeholder participation early, talking to the right stakeholders, being flexible in methods used, and putting local and scientific knowledge on equal footing. The document also discusses using stakeholder analysis to systematically identify and engage relevant end users. Stakeholder analysis identifies interested parties, their power to influence outcomes, and how they interact. It can help answer questions about how parties can work more effectively together.
India is located in South Asia between Pakistan, China, and Nepal. It has a long history and diverse culture, with over 1 billion people speaking hundreds of languages and practicing many religions. India has the world's largest democracy and the fourth largest economy, with a rich cultural heritage including many classical dance forms, music, literature, mathematics, and science contributions over 5000 years. Some of its most famous landmarks include the Taj Mahal, Golden Temple, and Gateway of India.

1. Valuing ecosystem services provided by peatlands is challenging due to issues of scale and spatial heterogeneity. The value of services like carbon sequestration is global, while others like recreation are local.
2. Spatial data on factors like population distribution, ecosystem characteristics, and accessibility is needed to understand how values vary across locations. Distance from the ecosystem and between beneficiaries also influences values.
3. Previous studies on peatland valuation provide limited spatially explicit data. Benefit transfer methods are commonly used but depend on comparability between study sites. More primary valuation studies are needed that account for spatial factors.

This document summarizes discussions from several workshops focused on integrated management of the rural-urban fringe (RUF). Key themes that emerged include: 1) Challenging current economic systems and institutional values that act as barriers to change, 2) The importance of effective stakeholder participation through broadening expertise and collaborative approaches, 3) Adopting a long-term perspective through visions, adaptive projects, and skills development, and 4) The need for integration across sectors, scales, and boundaries in both planning and management of the RUF.

This document discusses moving beyond outreach to active community involvement in global change science. It outlines several projects that engage local communities as participants in research, including collecting traditional ecological knowledge. The Kids Archaeology Project Iceland partners Icelandic schools and communities with researchers to study cultural heritage through hands-on activities. The goal is to foster two-way learning, create lasting sustainability education benefits, and connect communities internationally in resilience and global change science.
How to become an effective knowledge managerAberdeen CES
This presentation asks what it takes to become an effective manager of knowledge beyond the individual, to the classroom, community and international scales. At these scales, might social learning provide a mechanism through which we can facilitate the spread of new ideas, and perhaps even attitudes and behaviours? The session will consider the possibilities, using case studies from the Sustainable Uplands project at the United Nations Convention to Combat Desertification, considering how we can each become more effective knowledge managers, and so affect change far beyond our immediate sphere of influence.

O Juma Lodge é um hotel de selva localizado a 100 km de Manaus, aberto em 2002, com uma área de 7 mil hectares e 23 bungalows, recebendo principalmente turistas estrangeiros.
El documento habla sobre los tratamientos térmicos, que son procesos de calentamiento y enfriamiento controlados que mejoran las propiedades de los metales como los aceros. Define el tratamiento térmico como el conjunto de operaciones que involucran la temperatura, tiempo, velocidad y presión. Explica que las propiedades mecánicas de las aleaciones dependen de su composición química.

El documento habla sobre la gripe porcina H1N1. Se transmite principalmente a través de gotas de saliva cuando las personas tosen, estornudan o hablan. Los síntomas incluyen fiebre, tos, dolor de garganta y muscular. En algunos casos puede causar neumonía o incluso la muerte. Las medidas de prevención son lavarse las manos, evitar lugares concurridos y usar tapabocas, así como vacunarse contra el virus H1N1.
Porta-vozes iniciantes devem observar porta-vozes experientes para aprender com suas qualidades e habilidades. Três qualidades importantes são ouvir atentamente as perguntas, pensar tranquilamente em respostas claras e responder apenas o que foi perguntado. Embora pareça fácil, isso requer treinamento, pois muitos se sentem nervosos na frente das câmeras ou microfones no início. A prática é necessária para dar segurança aos porta-vozes.
Este documento apresenta os conceitos fundamentais sobre equações do segundo grau, incluindo coeficientes, raízes, fórmula de Bhaskara para calcular raízes, e processos para resolver equações completas e incompletas do segundo grau. Exemplos ilustram cada tópico e conceito.
Este documento lista 8 obras literárias e faz 3 observações sobre a leitura delas. As obras incluem ficção, poesia e crônicas históricas. As observações enfatizam a importância da leitura integral das obras, do contexto delas e do desenvolvimento de habilidades analíticas por meio da leitura reflexiva.
