“…A large body of the PPGIS literature supports the ability of the general public to spatially identify places that are important to them for a variety of landscape values [56], ecosystem services [49,59,61,79], wildlife conservation [70,71], coastal planning and zoning [33,63,65], and development preferences [72]. This research reaffirmed this approach to local knowledge development by identifying unique places that the general public have selected for this wide variety of different types of valued places in two coastal zones: Mobile Bay, Alabama and Apalachicola Bay, Florida.…”

“…While it is clear that many areas valued for cultural services require stakeholder input, it can be asked why one would want to collect general public perceptions of areas valued for watershed services and other ecological functions or biodiversity habitat when ecologists and biologists can provide specific scientific data and spatial delineations of these landscape attributes. While it has been shown that the general public can identify these natural areas with substantial accuracy, they often do not identify all of the important areas for these services [70,71,92]. However, the accuracy of the identification of landscape values and other cultural and ecosystem service are considered as accurate enough to contribute to broad based conservation planning [93,94].…”

“…PPGIS studies have focused on a wide variety of natural resource management topics important for CVMAs including ecosystem services [59][60][61], coastal zoning [62][63][64][65], marine area planning [66][67][68], climate change and vulnerability [33,69], wildlife conservation [70,71], parks, tourism, and outdoor recreation [72][73][74], and development preferences [72,75]. There have been a number of studies assessing various qualitative and quantitative methodologies and identification of best practices [56,[75][76][77].…”

The U.S. Gulf of Mexico coast has a long history of intense and varied development, from energy infrastructure and seaports to vacation homes and tourism. Coastal populations and development are growing. Concurrently, global climate change will influence sea level rise, resulting in increased flooding, storm surge, and coastal erosion. Regional planners must prepare for sea level rise and develop adaptive solutions to maximize resiliency. Comprehensive coastal vulnerability mapping assessments (CVMA) can integrate social, economic, and physical vulnerability with spatial analysis of natural hazards for local place-based investigations. Public Participation Geographic Information Systems (PPGIS) are a potentially important tool for the spatial collection of stakeholder knowledge for CVMA. The objective of this study was to assess the locations of a range of landscape values, ecosystem services, and development preferences held and identified by the general public using PPGIS to determine if those valued locations are vulnerable to sea level rise. We found that PPGIS can be used to map a wide variety of landscape values and that they can be used to assess vulnerability to sea level rise. We conclude with a discussion on how to integrate PPGIS into participatory CVMA for sea level rise planning.

“…Gender difference in economic production remains a challenge with the majority of women still facing discrimination (Doss et al 2018). There is evidence that FHH participates actively in the none sector economies (Alobo Loison 2019;Alobo Loison 2015;de Brauw et al 2013) relatively, poor regions had toughly had gender inequality than rich regions. Nevertheless, Female-headed households who are found in rich regions had higher livelihood diversification compare to those poor countries Djurfeldt et al (2013).…”

Nowadays, the non-farm sector gives more attention and high expectations in reducing poverty in sub-Saharan African. Because participation of farm households in the none-farm sector out of their farm activities will play a great role to reduce poverty. Cross-sectional data were used to collect data in 2020 from farm household heads of 371 respondents with the mixed methodology to investigate the effect of demographic factors in none/off-farm economic activities on gender perspective in Ethiopia. In this study, we employ a Logistic regression model to explore the probabilities of household heads' participation in none/off-farm economic activities out of their farm. The result indicated, age and education level have a positive effect and statistically significant effect on increasing non-farm activities with the coefficients of 3.406, 1.956 respectively, confirmed that these variables should take into account in policy development to increase their impact on livelihood diversification. And Gender has a negatively significant on livelihood diversification. FHH is more participants in non-farm economic activities than MHH. Credit access does not contribute to increasing livelihood diversification instead; it contributes to agricultural specialization, not diversification. Surprisingly, family size has insignificant results in non-farm economic activities The outcome indicated it has its implications for the Ethiopian policy and strategy. The government should give more attention to the progressive aspects of non-farm economic activities to eradicate poverty. Whereas, decreasing its negative impact on poorer households by controlling obstacles of non-farm activities.
