Territories of life as key to global environmental sustainability

Résumé

Territories and areas that Indigenous peoples and local communities govern, manage and conserve (hereafter territories of life) are increasingly recognized by scientists, international agencies, non-governmental and grassroots organizations, as central to the future of a healthy and sustainable planet. Hundreds of thousands of such social-ecological systems exist worldwide, covering millions of square kilometers of land and seascapes on all five continents, contributing to the conservation and sustainable use of a significant proportion of the world’s biodiversity. Nevertheless, these systems are facing many threats and often have little to no formal recognitionor support from nation-state governments. In order to address this growing need, this review provides the most complete, recent and updated global overview of territories of life. The review advocates for a holistic approach of territories of life and identifies key opportunities for researchers to favor action- and policy-oriented research in support of such vital systems for global sustainability
