摘要
We propose creating and maintaining records of engagement and decision-making (RoED) to help us and our communities better understand ourselves, our goals, our decisions, and the dynamic systems in which we all live. The purpose of RoED is to go well beyond noting that dialogue occurred or a decision was reached. The records should, in ways appropriate to the context and participants, document interactions and note biases, beliefs, emotions, behaviors, norms, and values. These crucial aspects are generally absent in academic papers and formal reports, yet they always play a role in decision-making processes. While not a panacea for addressing critical biophysical and social challenges, we propose that a comprehensive framework for promoting realistic, legitimate and inclusive engagement could enhance trust, establish institutional memory, and when and where appropriate, ensure greater transparency. The aim is to create and maintain RoED to collect significant information and share insights from multi-stakeholder decision-making processes from diverse institutions, contexts, and disciplinary domains. In the long-term RoED could promote more effective adaptive management or governance approaches. This paper describes an exploratory phase intended to catalyze collaborative efforts worldwide.
中文摘要
我们建议创建和维护参与和决策记录 (RoED)，以帮助我们和我们的社区更好地了解我们自己、我们的目标、我们的决定以及我们所有人生活的动态系统。 RoED 的目的不仅仅是指出对话发生或达成决定。 记录应以适合上下文和参与者的方式记录交互并记录偏见、信念、情绪、行为、规范和价值观。 这些关键方面在学术论文和正式报告中通常不存在，但它们始终在决策过程中发挥作用。 虽然这不是解决关键的生物物理和社会挑战的灵丹妙药，但我们建议，一个促进现实、合法和包容性参与的综合框架可以增强信任，建立机构记忆，并在适当的时候和适当的地方确保更大的透明度。 目的是创建和维护 RoED，以收集重要信息并分享来自不同机构、背景和学科领域的多方利益相关者决策过程的见解。 从长远来看，RoED 可以促进更有效的适应性管理或治理方法。 本文描述了旨在促进全球协作努力的探索阶段。
