TL;DR: In this article, the authors identify three principles shared by participatory catchment organizations (i.e., trust brokers, collaborative decision making and win-wins) that show how, through participatory approaches founded on trust, complex problems can be resolved in ways that do not unduly punish groups or individuals.

TL;DR: Watershed Talk as mentioned in this paper explored processes of dialogue between catchment residents, scientists and resource managers, and examined how design of creative processes can shift people's understanding and develop their capacity to address complex environmental issues that they face.

TL;DR: A conceptual model of integrated catchment management (ICM) is presented in this article, in which ICM is defined as a process to achieve both ecosystem resilience and community resilience, and it requires not only biophysical knowledge developed by hydrologists and other environmental scientists, but an active partnership with catchment communities and stakeholders to break the 'paradigm lock' described by the UNESCO-HELP programme.

TL;DR: A heuristic for implementing social learning cognisant of institutional context is presented and findings emphasise that social learning is underpinned by participants’ changing assumptions about what constitutes the institution of learning itself—from instruction to a dynamic, collective and emergent process.
