ABSTRACT

REDD+ is an international policy aimed at incentivizing forest conservation and management and improving forest governance. In this article, we interrogate how newly articulated REDD+ governance processes established to guide the formulation of Nepal’s REDD+ approach address issues of participation for different social groups. Specifically, we analyse available forums of participation for different social groups, as well as the nature of their representation and degree of participation during the country’s REDD+ preparedness phase. We find that spaces for participation and decision-making in REDD+ have been to date defined and dominated by government actors and influential civil society groups, whereas the influence of other actors, particularly marginalized groups such as Dalits and women’s organizations, have remained limited. REDD+ has also resulted in a reduction of influence for some hitherto powerful actors (e.g. community forestry activists) and constrained their critical voice. These governance weaknesses related to misrepresentation and uneven power relations in Nepal cast doubt on the extent to which procedural justice has been promoted through REDD+ and imply that implementation may, as a consequence, lack the required social legitimacy and support. We discuss possible ways to address these shortcomings, such as granting greater prominence to neglected civil society forums within the REDD+ process, allowing for an increase in their influence on policy design, enhancing capacity and leadership of marginalized groups and institutionalizing participation through continued forest governance reform.

Key policy insights

• Participation is a critical asset in public policy design.

• Ensuring wide and meaningful participation can enhance policy legitimacy and thus its endorsement and potential effective implementation.

• Fostering inclusive processes through dedicated forums such as multi-stakeholder groups can help overcome power dynamics.

• While REDD+ is open to participation by different actors through a variety of formal means, many countries lack a clear framework for participation in national policy processes.

• Nepal’s experience with representation and participation of non-state actors in its REDD+ preparedness programme provides useful insights for similar social and policy contexts.

钢框架-钢筋混凝土剪力墙结构的地震能量反应分析     

刘哲锋  沈蒲生  龚胡广 《地震工程与工程振动》2007,27(2):69-73

以17个钢框架-钢筋混凝土剪力墙混合结构为样本,选取结构自振周期T和结构刚度特征值λ作为分析参数,分析它们在不同类型地震动下的地震能量反应。研究表明,混合结构体系在地震作用下总输入能的大小主要与结构的自振周期以及地震动类型有关,剪力墙与钢框架之间的刚度关系对总输入能影响不大;总输入能等效速度谱的形态受地震动类型的影响很大,同一地震动作用下,幅值与等效速度谱值之间基本能够维持线性增长的关系,但随着结构塑性发展的加剧,这种线性增长关系的离散度会变大;在结构自振周期不变化的前提下,结构的滞回耗能比以及底部剪力墙承担滞回耗能的比例都会随结构刚度比的增大而减小。  相似文献

本文将调谐液体阻尼器(TLD)和黏弹性阻尼器(VED)同时作用于结构,构成混合被动控制系统。通过对两类阻尼器分别进行优化设计并考虑两者间的相互影响,在充分发挥两者各自优良控制性能的同时,克服了VED大量使用导致控制系统整体造价过高的问题。算例分析表明,混合控制可以得到令人满意的整体减震效果,同时大大节约了VED用量,提高了控制系统的综合经济性能。  相似文献   

高层隔震建筑设计中隔震支座受拉问题分析   总被引：11，自引：0，他引：11  

程华群  刘伟庆  王曙光 《地震工程与工程振动》2007,27(4):161-166

高层建筑由于高宽比相对较大,倾覆效应明显,当采用隔震技术时,有可能使隔震支座出现拉应力,而通常使用的叠层橡胶隔震支座抗拉能力不强。因此,隔震支座受拉问题成为隔震技术在高层建筑中推广应用的主要障碍之一。本文提出了避免隔震支座受拉的上部结构布置原则及隔震层优化设计方法,并对目前隔震支座拉应力计算方法提出了改进建议。本文的研究工作可为工程设计提供借鉴,为隔震设计相关规范的修订提供依据。  相似文献   

Verification of significant wave representation method     

Winyu Rattanapitikon   《Ocean Engineering》2008,35(11-12):1259-1270

The significant wave representation method is the simplest method for computing the transformation of significant wave height across-shore. However, many engineers are reluctant to use this method because many researchers have pointed out that the method possibly contains a large estimation error. Nevertheless, Rattanapitikon et al. [Rattanapitikon, W., Karunchintadit, R., Shibayama, T., 2003. Irregular wave height transformation using representative wave approach. Coastal Engineering Journal, JSCE 45(3), 489–510.] showed that the wave representation method could be used to compute the transformation of root mean square wave heights. It may also be possible to use it for computing the significant wave height transformation. Therefore, this study was carried out to examine the possibility of simulating significant wave height transformation across-shore by using the significant wave representation method. Laboratory data from small- and large-scale wave flumes were used to calibrate and examine the models. Six regular wave models were applied directly to irregular waves by using the significant wave height and spectral peak period. The examination showed that three regular wave models (with new coefficients) could be used to compute the significant wave height transformation with very good accuracy. On the strength of both accuracy and simplicity of the three models, a suitable model is recommended for computing the significant wave height transformation. The suitable model was also modified for better predictions. The modified model (with different coefficients) can be used to compute either regular wave height or significant wave height transformation across-shore.  相似文献

为实现大规模地形的多分辨率显示与实时绘制,基于LOD技术给出了多尺度TIN的管理和表达算法。探讨该算法相关的数据组织、LOD层次表达、实时刷新等关键问题。该算法使用分级策略,在不影响视觉效果前提下对TIN进行分级表达;使用分区策略,在可视化过程中对TIN进行局部更新。采取不同分辨率TIN模型间逐步过渡策略,基本上消除了视图变换时的跳跃感。实验结果表明,这种紧凑有效的TIN表示方法实现简单,内存开销较少,CPU耗费小,大大缩短了视图刷新切换时间,能够在普通机器上实现大规模地形的实时漫游。  相似文献
