“…Designing locally impactful fieldwork. Researchers can intentionally plan activities that not only maximize immediate and long-term benefits for local communities (Figure 2, Box S2; [71][72][73], but also strengthen relationships with regional collaborators and create a better understanding of scientific practices in general. Communicating logistical details can also make a difference, such as teams formally introducing themselves and explaining research to local communities when a project begins, and discussing results, future collaborations and outreach, and preferred method of acknowledgement when the project ends.…”

Field biology is an area of research that involves working directly with living organisms in situ through a practice known as “fieldwork.” Conducting fieldwork often requires complex logistical planning within multiregional or multinational teams, interacting with local communities at field sites, and collaborative research led by one or a few of the core team members. However, existing power imbalances stemming from geopolitical history, discrimination, and professional position, among other factors, perpetuate inequities when conducting these research endeavors. After reflecting on our own research programs, we propose four general principles to guide equitable, inclusive, ethical, and safe practices in field biology: be collaborative, be respectful, be legal, and be safe. Although many biologists already structure their field programs around these principles or similar values, executing equitable research practices can prove challenging and requires careful consideration, especially by those in positions with relatively greater privilege. Based on experiences and input from a diverse group of global collaborators, we provide suggestions for action-oriented approaches to make field biology more equitable, with particular attention to how those with greater privilege can contribute. While we acknowledge that not all suggestions will be applicable to every institution or program, we hope that they will generate discussions and provide a baseline for training in proactive, equitable fieldwork practices.

After reflecting on our own research programs, we propose four general principles to guide equitable, inclusive, ethical, and safe practices in field biology: Be Collaborative, Be Legal, Be Safe, and Be Respectful. Although many field biologists already structure their field programs around these principles or similar values, executing equitable research practices can prove challenging and requires careful consideration, especially by those in positions with relatively greater privilege. Based on experiences and input from a diverse group of global collaborators, we provide suggestions for action-oriented approaches to making field biology more equitable under these guidelines, with particular attention to how those with greater privilege can contribute. While we acknowledge that not all suggestions will be applicable to every institution or program, we hope that they will generate discussions and provide a baseline for training in proactive, equitable fieldwork practices.

“…En tanto, cabe considerar que los monitoreos participativos son en esencia investigaciones participativas con ciertas características propias, donde se conjugan estrategias metodológicas así como intereses sociales y políticos. En términos generales, se puede definir al monitoreo participativo como un proceso de coproducción de conocimiento donde se realiza la observación sistemática de parámetros, fenómenos o indicadores que son definidos por un grupo integrado por distintos actores de un territorio, o un grupo transdisciplinario, quienes participan del diseño, planificación e implementación de las acciones durante todo el proceso (Fernandes Couto et al, 2021;Ulloa et al, 2021).…”

Implementar procesos participativos para involucrar a diferentes actores sociales vinculados a problemas ambientales locales puede contribuir a mejorar la comprensión de las causas de estos y empoderar a los ciudadanos frente a la toma de decisiones colectivas. La importancia de esta participación ciudadana se refleja en la experiencia llevada a cabo en Tranqueras (Rivera, Uruguay), donde se convocó a distintos actores para efectuar un monitoreo participativo de la calidad de agua del río Tacuarembó. El proceso implicó la realización de talleres para la visualización de problemáticas ambientales y el diseño de un muestreo, colecta participativa y análisis de la calidad del agua. Esta experiencia generó un espacio de intercambio de saberes entre la comunidad y la Universidad que conduce a la reflexión sobre la relevancia de la dimensión epistemológica de los problemas ambientales, la forma en que se llega a su conocimiento y las distintas perspectivas con las que se abordan.
