Abstract
Fostering capacity building on Scenarios and Modelling on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services to Support Human Well-Being
Highlights
Scenarios and models allow the exploration and communication of the results of different narratives (“futures”) for social, economic and environmental development
In order to capture the consequences of the growing threats to biodiversity and ecosystem services, scenarios have become timely a key component in decision-making (IPBES 2016a)
Aligning with the ambition of organizations such as Intergovernmental Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services (IPBES), the São Paulo School of Advanced Science on Scenarios and Modelling on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services to Support Human Well-Being Scenarios (SPSAS Scenarios) addressed the relationship of dependence, between ecosystem services sustained by biodiversity, and human well-being
Summary
Scenarios and models allow the exploration and communication of the results of different narratives (“futures”) for social, economic and environmental development. The need for a step change in the capacity to foresee credible future changes was lead the Intergovernmental Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services (IPBES) that organized a working group with over 80 experts from all regions of the world, to produce a report.
