dc.description This report summarises the International INSAKA Symposium hosted by the Multidisciplinary Research Centre of the University of Namibia from 19–22 June 2017 in Windhoek, under the theme Enhancing Social‑Ecological Systems’ Adaptive Capacity to Change. The INSAKA Consortium—comprising the University of Namibia, Copperbelt University (Zambia), Monash University (South Africa campus), University of KwaZulu‑Natal (South Africa), and the University of Montana (USA)—functions as an African‑centred community of practice focused on addressing challenges within Southern African social‑ecological systems. The symposium recognised the global nature of environmental and social change and emphasised the importance of regional and international collaboration, knowledge exchange and the sharing of expertise to strengthen community resilience, improve natural resource management and respond effectively to emerging pressures. The event attracted academics, practitioners and postgraduate students from Namibia, the SADC region and North America, with participation from all Namibian universities and various NGOs including NCE, NACSO and IRDNC. Presentations highlighted lessons learned, best practices and opportunities for strengthening adaptive capacity through cooperation, networking and integrated social‑ecological approaches. en_US
