IASC 2027 #1: Centering the Commons: Resilience, Resistance, and Collective Action

There is a strong emphasis on community engagement and visits to local communities, ensuring that conference activities are grounded in place and that interactions with communities are meaningful and participatory.
IASC 2027 #1: Centering the Commons: Resilience, Resistance, and Collective Action

Sub-themes were developed to reflect a wide range of issues, including climate, urban commons, food, health, art, indigeneity, and constitutionalism, with a strong emphasis on linking practice with theory and on bringing practitioners into the conversation through labs and collaborative networks.
IASC 2027 #1: Centering the Commons: Resilience, Resistance, and Collective Action
Q: What is the motivation for having the next IASC conference in Makassar, Indonesia?
The motivation is to expose Indonesian and regional commons issues at a global forum, leverage Sulawesi's diverse landscapes and communities to illustrate the breadth of commons governance, and connect local practice with international scholarship.
142: Poverty-Biodiversity Loss Association and Connected Conservation
Q: How can conservation programs be more equitable and effective?
By expanding impact metrics to include multidimensional well-being, rights-based approaches, supporting biocultural centers, and fostering diverse coalitions that include Indigenous and local communities alongside other stakeholders.
142: Poverty-Biodiversity Loss Association and Connected Conservation
Q: What are the main drivers of biodiversity loss beyond poverty, according to your work?
We argue wealth, inequitable political economy, and the patterns of global consumption—especially by centers of wealth and the capitalist development model—are major drivers, with poverty framed as a symptom rather than the root cause.
