Achieving understanding on the interactions and feedbacks between sectors at different spatial levels as well as across ecological and social structures, could have a profound influence on the global mitigation capacity. The assessment of this complex social-ecological process requires analytical frameworks that are able to deal with the multiscale, multi-sectoral interactions. Within this context, the objective of D2.1.1 is to develop a framework for multi-scale integrated analyses of the impacts that land use change may have on the social-ecological processes of these systems. We introduce here a generic analytical framework based on a circular model, where the links between the sectors within the social-ecological system are made explicit and measurable through a set of key indicators. This framework can be applied at different spatial levels in a consistent and flexible manner, allowing a multi-scale integrated assessment. The framework can also provide an understanding of the potential effects of changes in other 'land-use-related' policies than climate change, such as environmental and agricultural policies. Our framework thus provides the basic building blocks for a better understanding of the feed-back loops in the system, the interaction between scales and the testing of mitigation options. The flexibility of the framework allows its use by both policy and decision makers as scientists. D2.1.1 starts by providing general definitions as basis for a common understanding of the conceptual framework building blocks. Thereafter reviews relevant indicator frameworks for analysis of impacts of land use change on social-ecosystems. The comparative analyses of these frameworks serves as basis to define the ROBIN conceptual framework. The detailed description of the conceptual framework sets the scene for the ROBIN Indicator Framework. It ends summarising the findings and points out next steps.  aMudança Climática  aUso da Terra  aImpacto  aProjeto1 aROUPIOZ, L.1 aWINOGRAD, M.
