The policy mix is an analytical framework for understanding the elements, processes, dimensions and characteristics of complex systems. This article applies this to Aotearoa New Zealand’s climate mitigation, both understand why we have policies have, also stimulate ideas about how improve outcomes. Instead a comprehensive analysis, focuses on instruments, evaluative principles that guide appraisal, challenge harmonising multiple principles, influence economic scope intent mixes.

Climate change poses a risk to agricultural activity. Understanding farmers' behaviors is increasingly important for managing climate risks and improving their adaptive capacity. This study aims identify the key risk-related drivers influencing several adaptation mitigation strategies by adopting various Climate-Smart Agriculture (CSA) technologies reduce vulnerability. We investigate interrelated nature of adoption CSA related soil fertility, conservation, agroforestry, agro-advisory apps, alternative coffee farming practices. To explore role perceived technology adoption, we constructed an extended model that combines protection motivation theory, social demographic determinants. collected empirical data from 519 farmers in Costa Rica analyzed through multivariate probit technique. The analysis reveals how influence severity, vulnerability, response efficacy, self-efficacy, cost changes according technology. As risks, show likelihood focused on decreases with increasing risk. Other determinants, such as number buyers membership organization, steer fertility practices, mobile apps. Main theoretical implications include integration perceptions since it reflects fear potential losses or additional costs associated implementing these finding gives nuanced explanation decisions under pressing threats. Practical are promotion programs must consider see decisions, meaning more fruitful synergies could be promoted acknowledging bundled multiple technologies. Thus, promoting mix practices essential achieving resilience while productivity.

In Africa, the agricultural sector contributes approximately 10–20% of total anthropogenic greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. It presents rapid growth as a result rising food demand in which is being driven by population growth. Consequently, climate change can negatively affect crop yields and livestock production, thus threatening security. This review highlights existing gender gaps African agriculture discusses drivers barriers that maintain climate-smart (CSA) adoption countries. Moreover, offers comprehensive roadmap for essential measures required to facilitate widespread uptake CSA practices among female farmers. Several were reported, such practices, forest cropland regeneration water resources, use weather information services. The gap was influenced policy legislation, financial social cultural taboos, technical determinants access. To address this gap, scientific-outcome-based research should be used small conclusion, overcome recommends gender-responsive approach, development scientific research-driven measures, prioritization equality governments’ agendas context uncertainty.

Abstract International civil society and non-government organisations (NGOs) play a role in implementing agricultural projects, which contribute to the mitigation, adaptation, food security dimensions of climate-smart agriculture (CSA). Despite growth CSA, it remains unclear how CSA is designed, conceptualised, embedded into development projects led implemented by NGOs, creating lack clarity as direction future interventions. This paper examines extent programmes from NGO sector actively incorporate principles benefit smallholder farmers under major pillars CSA. Drawing six projects’ documentation since 2009, we conducted thematic analysis reveal alignment with discuss allows for localised adaptability given diverse contexts NGOs work. We find that despite definition focus, practices make heterogenous contributions adoption principles. illustrate diversity ways ‘done’ global across areas: greening forests, knowledge exchange, markets, policy institutions, nutrition, carbon climate, gender. need balance contextual three explicit consideration trade-offs reduce unintended outcomes initiatives. conclude reflections on boundary agents sector.

The multiple crises (climate, biodiversity, austerity) facing our socio-ecological systems require ambitious responses; with much of the responsibility for protecting public goods and developing sustainably lying policy. To tackle these wicked problems, there are increasing calls policy coherence: to use levers government in a more holistic systemic manner. Land transformation is crucial achieving ambitions. However, limited scholarship that takes comprehensive approach analysing coherence (both horizontal vertical). Common many nation-states, Scottish Government has made pledges address climate action (mitigation adaptation) nature, an emphasis on leaving no one behind e.g., net zero by 2045 using Just Transitions. In this research we examine 66 land related policies addressing transformation, as well in-depth analysis 11 agricultural policies. We three questions synergies problems opportunities improvement. Overall, found half examined advanced but query possibility hidden conflicts. highlighted when looking at collective, was clear, however, individual level it not. Our paper shows whilst challenging implement, paying attention forms can highlight consider revising or designing pressing problems.

Abstract National innovation systems (NISs) have been important in the literature since 1990s for highlighting institutional performance of economies and promoting economic development. Inclusion systemic activities is an emerging area research. However, definition inclusion within innovative remains unclear associated with numerous forms characteristics depending on context visited. Our work highlights conceptual gap that exists around notion inclusive by characterising three relation to activities. We thus set out, form a typology, distinct framings which enable us identify different levels specific mechanisms inclusion. This typology makes it possible appropriate policies, how characterised (low, medium, high). It also helps clarify nature NIS approaches.

Abstract In response to the need for exploring transformative innovation policy (TIP) implementation dynamics across sectors and contexts, this paper examines emergence of TIP in Chilean agri-food sector. Our findings indicate that has been developing recent years, primarily high-level discourses, while efforts coordination concrete instrument mixes lag behind. Contextual factors strongly influence development, which include (1) organization public administration, (2) national political dynamics, (3) cultures, (4) geographical contexts. Importantly, our work emphasizes capabilities underscores significant role proto-institutions supporting through system coordination, science-policy advice, fostering cross-sectoral collaboration, multiactor engagement, learning experimentation. Better considering contexts as starting point could advance its contribute a broader understanding dynamics.

Abstract Mission-oriented innovation policies have major justice implications because they aim to radically transform our societies. Although research on these rarely engages with the notion of justice, this paper rests premise that it has implicitly provided insights are relevant, and which could function as an entry point for a much-needed debate mission justice. In response, we identify explicate implicit considerations distributive, procedural, recognitional, restorative in context missions by means systematic literature review. While scholarly indeed raised relevant questions regarding find few meaningful answers. particular, scholars seem overlook help rectify historical wrongdoing. We highlight imperative ways policymakers can engage more explicitly formulate, implement, evaluate just transitions.

ABSTRACT Despite the growing popularity of organic farming and its sustainability benefits, obstacles hinder widespread adoption. This study uses Transformative Innovation Policy framework to explore strategies from leaders among 190 countries for promoting farming. We conducted a correspondence analysis policy documents chosen nations, which were influenced by socio‐economic conditions, industrial specialisations institutional cultures. utilised directed qualitative content key players' documents, focusing on metrics such as extent land dedicated farming, number producers proportion total agricultural area allocated The findings reveal presence transitional mission‐oriented approaches at plan level, yet currently enacted legislative measures need be revised motivate significant progress.
