In 2012—2019 various expert organizations in accordance with the law of the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia) on ethnological expertise, adopted in 2010, conducted more than 20 ethnological expert reviews. The analysis of the examinations carried out revealed methodological shortcomings in assessing the damage to the nature, environmental and social consequences. To prevent damage to the natural environment, it is necessary to create a system of public monitoring and partially delegate the powers of state and (or) corporate bodies for environmental protection to indigenous communities. The successful practice of corporate social responsibility of large companies, both regional and ...

As stewards of the natural capital of over a quarter of the world’s surface area, Indigenous Peoples (IPs), are at the frontline of these changes. Indigenous socioecological systems (ISES) are particularly exposed and sensitive to exogenous changes because of the intimate bounds of IPs with nature. Traditional food systems (TFS) represent one of the most prominent components of ISES, providing not only diverse and nutritious food but also critical socioeconomic, cultural, and spiritual assets. However, a proper understanding of how future climate change may compromise TFS through alterations of related human-nature interactions is still lacking. Climate change resilience of indigenous socioecological systems (RISE) is a new joint international project that aims to fill this gap in knowledge. Methods and design RISE will use a comparative c...

In April 2010, a regional law on 'ethnological expert review' was adopted in the region of Yakutia, which is implemented during industrial projects that are initiated on the territories of indigenous peoples of the North. This law was developed under pressure from regional non-governmental organizations, following public debates about potential impacts during

However, increasingly the food system has to answer to broader societal objectives such as sustainable development. Therefore, the implications of innovations within the food system have to be considered through a sustainability perspective.

Food supply chains are increasingly dominated by the major retailers and food manufacturers, whose purchasing practices, e.g. global sourcing, have major implications for the sustainability of the food system. Our conceptual standpoint is based upon literatures drawn from economic geography, ecological modernisation and innovation. Using this approach the paper explores the nature of the relationships between the key actors in the supply chains to understand the implication of their economic practices for sustainability. A key focus of this paper is innovation, which is fuelled by the growing competition between and amongst food retailers and manufacturers. Innovation has three important effects upon the food supply chain, these are: • "Bending time", e.g. passing materials more quickly through the supply chain. • "Collapsing space", e.g. diminishing distance for the sourcing of materials. • "Restructuring the supply chain", i.e. impacting unequally upon actors in food supply chains and changing the relationships between them. Each of these effects has important consequences for our understandings of the (un)sustainability of the food system. The evidence for this research is drawn from series of key person interviews and analysis of secondary data.

Moreover, the paper will identify the policy implications for the UK and EU in relation to conventional and organic strategies for sustainability in the food system.

Potato supply penetrates various distribution channels including green grocers, supermarkets and food catering and is highly characteristic of the current food supply chain in the UK. This paper investigates the economic and socio-environmental dimensions of the potato supply chain in the UK, exploring the characteristics of the existing conventional potato production, nature of supply chain relations, environmental impacts and social concerns related to potato production and consumption. The paper discusses the role of technological change in shaping the conventional potato supply chain and its implications for sustainability. Finally, the paper provides an analysis of development of organic production, exploring its relations with conventional potato supply and ability to address the existing sustainability concerns. The paper is based on qualitative research and interviewing of key actors in the UK food sector.

The food system from production through to consumption is an important sector in the UK economy, which provides employment and is accountable for a significant share of household expenditure. It also has associated environmental impacts on water, land and energy use as well as water and air pollution and waste generation. Public concerns relating to the food system include food safety, nutrition, environmental protection, animal welfare, ethical sourcing and potential risks of food technologies, which extend the debate on the sustainability of the food system.
