What comes to mind when you hear the word #landscape? When we talk about landscapes, are we really talking about forests, water and soils – or about power, history, culture and human relationships?

🟢 Identifying stakeholders is just Step 1.
Effective ILM needs deeper analysis of roles, interests + power — who can enable progress, who can block it, and how influence shapes participation.

🟢 You can’t engage those you haven’t identified.
In ILM, stakeholder identification is step one – the foundation for participation and for bringing people together in Multi-Stakeholder Forums (MSFs).
This short clip explains why knowing who is in the landscape matters.

What does ILM look like in real life?
Our teams in Colombia, Ecuador & Paraguay got honest about what’s working — and what’s not. From crab traps to WhatsApp groups, ILM is alive and evolving. Here’s what we’re learning:

What does real ILM learning look like?
In Cameroon, Burkina Faso & Senegal, field teams looked honestly at what worked, what didn’t & what they’d do differently. Powerful lessons for ILM across Africa.

🐊 Most people fear crocodiles. In Laos, they’re a sign of hope.
The ECILL project is bringing the Siamese crocodile back from extinction – not just as a conservation win, but as an #IntegratedLandscapeManagement success that supports people & wildlife. bit.ly/466iuHI
“Keep it complex,” urges Andy Stirling in Nature — and we agree. Integrated Landscape Management means embracing #uncertainty, not ignoring it. Co-create resilient solutions with communities, not quick fixes.

🥞 How is #IntegratedLandscapeManagement like sharing #pancakes in a classroom? 😀
Defining #ILM ain't easy. All that jargon. So we challenged colleagues to explain it to a 5-year-old. Here's the sweetest definition you've probably never seen.

🧐 🕊️Can #ILM be a vehicle for #peace? Kim Geheb contemplates the physical landscape scarred by #violence, and the #sociallandscapes that gave rise to this – but which might also be fertile grounds for the seeds of #change.

Integrated Landscape Management (#ILM) demands more than technical solutions — it requires understanding #socialdynamics, #tradeoffs, and #decisionmaking tensions. Serious stuff, right? Time to play #games!

🤔 What is a #landscape? Merely a geophysical unit? As this video snippet shows, Kim Geheb answered that compellingly while talking about the power of #systems. (Plus: "We produce the new crust of the earth." Why does he say that?)
#ourlandscapes for #ourfuture
💡 We're addressing key knowledge gaps in Integrated Landscape Management (#ILM). Kim Geheb argues for a #systems perspective: #Landscapes are #complex systems. When they head in the 'wrong' direction, our #mission is to change system direction." How?
