Governance of the ocean and its biodiversity is deeply entangled within social, political cultural histories. The evolution marine science has been subject to similar influences, we (the authors) consider these factors create, embed reinforce knowledge hierarchies in governance processes associated research that set societal patterns prioritisation exclusion.

This paper develops the methodological concept of river co-learning arenas (RCAs) and explores their potential to strengthen innovative grassroots initiatives, enliven commons, regenerate ecologies, foster greater socio-ecological justice. The integrity systems has been threatened in profound ways over last century. Pollution, damming, canalisation, water grabbing are some examples pressures threatening entwined lifeworlds human non-human communities that depend on riverine systems. Finding reverse trends environmental degradation demands complex spatial–temporal, political, institutional articulations across different levels governance (from local global) among a plurality actors who operate from diverse spheres knowledge practice, have distinct capacities affect decision-making. In this context, initiatives worldwide use new multi-actor multi-level dialogue develop proposals for regeneration promote social-ecological justice opposition dominant technocratic-hydraulic development strategies. conceptualises these spaces action as RCAs critically reflects organising supporting while facilitating cross-fertilisation transdisciplinary practice. By integrating studies, debates, theories disciplines, we generate multi-faceted insights present cornerstones engagement with and/or enaction RCAs. encompasses five main themes central RCAs: (1) River encounters truth regimes, (2) transgressive co-learning, (3) confrontation collaboration dynamics, (4) ongoing reflexivity, (5) transcultural assemblages translocal bridging rooted knowledge.

Abstract After drawing attention to the crucial role of marine biodiversity, including that deep-sea ecosystems, in current scientific understanding ocean-climate nexus, this article highlights limited extent which international climate change regime has so far addressed ocean. The focus then shifts how could contribute protection biodiversity as part mitigation, adaptation and finance, taking into account human rights impacts standards, a comparison with REDD +. concludes an original proposal, inspired by Climate Clean Air Coalition, develop urgent, synergistic approaches ocean- rights-based action through multi-actor coalition, different treaties United Nations bodies, ‘protect restore ocean’s contributions regulation, well-being planetary health’.

Abstract The need for more radical forms of learning-centred transformation is increasingly recognised in transformations to sustainability. Yet these approaches learning remain under-developed and undertheorised especially from a politics environmental education research perspective. This paper offers review an emerging transgression research, as developed through extensive T-learning (transgressive times climate change) knowledge co-production programme, spanning eight years, continuing. ongoing problem that the programme seeks address how do transgressive in/as where fall out coloniality fossil capital collide regressive political landscape which Akomolafe Ladha (2017, pg. 820) describe “the deadening ideology late-stage capitalism its corollaries patriarchy, rationalism, white supremacy anthropocentrism.” Through paper, I seek highlight “low theory” (Wark, 2021) embodied practices movement co-engaged illuminate meta-reflective curational process ‘archive’ or commons collection.

This paper critically examines the intersections of Science, colonialism, and cartography in shaping perceptions ocean its human-nature relationships. Drawing on Postcolonial Science Technology Studies (PCSTS) Decolonial Theory, it scrutinizes historical mapping practices, revealing how they perpetuated ontological hierarchies controlled narratives ocean. Through archival research spanning from Revolution to colonial exploration, exposes maps framed as a controllable entity, obscuring socio-cultural dimensions biodiversity. Focusing case study Northern Kwazulu-Natal, South Africa, authors explore an Empatheatre process, that challenges Western ontologies promotes counter-hegemonic cartographic practices. Situating this within critical PCSTS literature, reveals projects molded oceanic space influenced environmental governance. In African context, is haunted by violent history racial exclusion ecological exploitation. Initiatives like Operation Phakisa’s Blue Economy plan underscore tension between economic growth sustainability, leading rapid coastal developments. Marine Spatial Planning (MSP) emerges tool reconcile these interests, yet implementation raises questions about inclusivity community participation. Introducing method, characterized ‘Call Response’ approach, invites local communities co-create reflecting their concerns relationships with attentive listening collaborative storytelling, traditional consultation methods, prioritizing meaningful engagement collective meaning-making. Mapping context not merely static representation but dynamic process thinking relationality. By foregrounding social, cultural, Empatheatre’s approach redefines mapmaker-map relationship empowers active agents narratives. The transformative potential lies ability shift power dynamics foster empathy diverse stakeholders. performative storytelling visual representations, creates for marginalized voices alternative modes knowledge transmission. conclusion, advocates decolonial cartographies acknowledges fosters inclusive governance structures.

Recent years have witnessed a seemingly constant call for improved understanding of human–ocean relationships, resulting in “boom” marine social science research, sometimes framed through the lens ocean literacy. Defined as having an your influence on ocean, and its you, literacy has gained traction recent way better complexities relationships. However, despite this interest human dimensions coasts seas, corresponding increase broader sciences qualitative arts‐based research approaches continue to remain periphery research. This article explores role two “outliers,” intersecting practice interconnected performances designed explore diverse values held by communities about their coastal environment. Undertaken part Diverse Marine Values project, brought together scientists, managers, community members create original performance pieces Lerwick, Shetland, Scotland, Portsmouth, England. Drawing heavily applied theatre scholarship, these distinct but interrelated utilised elements forum theatre, devised storytelling address issues important each respective community, with view fostering In location, work illustrated ways which can serve not only tool communication, also method range dimensions. The helped team, comprised jointly specialist practitioners experts literacy, management, plastics pollution reshape data collection stakeholder engagement. collaborative theatre‐making process led deeper conversations embedded engagement within community. It fundamental reshaping questions that managers scientists asked question. presents discussion challenges bridging related, often distant, disciplines, highlights discourse.

There is an increasing call for the need to “integrate” Indigenous and local knowledge systems in ocean governance processes, on national global scales. However, systems, epistemes, practices of different coastal communities, whose stewardship planet sustains protects marine ecosystems, pre‐date institutionalised sciences with which they are meant be integrated. The concept integration often perpetuates othering devaluation various knowledges that should not subject these problematic practices. Much current informing underpinned by colonial, military, financial projects, direct juxtaposition epistemes deeply interconnected life. Writing from a social perspective, we explore inherent problems limitations approaches propose reversing how frame “knowledge” its suggesting our scientific are, fact, “other” longstanding ways coexisting ocean. Without attempting represent or categorise as unaware developments, argue researchers scientists actively unlearn what taught prominent sciences. By focusing through International Seabed Authority South Africa, respectively, process unlearning teaches better critically consider is, has been, valued.

This paper explores the relevance of existing international legal standards on children's human rights to a healthy ocean. In particular, we reflect still underestimated importance ocean for right development and cultural rights. Focusing environmental education, argue that concept literacy should rather be conceptualised as plurality ‘ocean literacies’ better account multiple knowledges. Ocean literacies in education re-imagined emphasise systems approach ocean, integrating aspects justice avoiding psychological pressure children responsible future environment. The concludes by providing specific recommendations contextualising re-imagining time where there is an increased global focus through UN Decade.
