This research paper describes the development and validation of the Local Knowledge Scenarios (LKS) methodology, which integrates field work and Agent-Based Models to assess how rural producers in the Americas perceive global change and how this knowledge influences future land-use scenarios and decision-making.

  • The project's primary goal is the creation of the Local Knowledge Scenarios (LKS) methodology, which combines field work with Agent-Based Models to facilitate the participatory construction of land-use scenarios.
  • The LKS method was tested and validated through workshops and field work across five distinct regions: the Pampa in Uruguay, the Amazon rainforest in Brazil, the North Atlantic coast in Newfoundland and Canada, the Andean mountains in Peru, and the North American prairies in Canada.
  • Initial results from the Amazon region indicate that while local populations are highly aware of soil degradation and hydrological changes caused by deforestation, environmental laws regarding deforestation remain difficult to implement because they are not accepted by the local population.
  • In the Change Islands of Canada, the goal for the fishing community to maintain a decent standard of living while diversifying into tourism is hindered by a lack of national public policy that allows for adaptation to specific local situations.
