Building better science-policy interfaces for international environmental governance: assessing potential within the Intergovernmental Platform for Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services (2012, background): “However, the emphasis on capacity building is primarily in terms of training people from the global South in the methods of Northern science.”
Functional traits and ecosystem services in ecological restoration (2020, background): “Moreover, in tropical regions, there are many taxonomic uncertainties due to high species richness, lack of surveys, and overall low scientific development (Karlsson et al. 2007; Hortal et al. 2015; Wilson et al. 2016).”
Disciplines, Geography, and Gender in the Framing of Climate Change (2010, background): “Authors such as Karlson et al. (2007) and Kadlikar and Sagar (1999) warn that scientific knowledge divisions across geographical boundaries place limits both on effective policymaking and on equitable negotiation of international agreements.”
