Beschreibung
In the project " Responsibility for Future Forests ", we apply the concept of responsibility ( Baumgärtner et al to social-ecological forest systems and demonstrate how it can be made operational to describe, judge, and guide decision-making of various actors at various levels of decision-making. One research task will be to conceptually and theoretically enhance and specify the concept of responsibility for social-ecological forest systems. Another research task will be to empirically study - through surveys or interviews - how stakeholders in the Black Forest region actually perceive their own (causal, normative, and virtuous) responsibilities and those of others.

The Excellence Cluster Future Forests at the University of Freiburg is an interdisciplinary research center dedicated to questions of adaptation and transformation of forests and their societal use in the face of global change.
