Reading grid of articles for the systematic review
We decided to group the final 30 selected papers into tables (presented in the Results section). To do so, we decided to keep eleven pieces of information for each article, plus the identification key: “Author/s (year).” The first piece of information related to whether the paper belonged to gray or academic literature. Since the nature and objectives of the two literature types differ greatly, we decided to create two separate tables in order to clearly distinguish between papers from the different types. After that, we started populating the tables with information extracted about the authors (author discipline and/or utilized methods, and institution of affiliation), the countries concerned in the study, and the scale of analysis (local, regional, national, or supranational). We then continued by identifying actors and tools mentioned in the papers. In addition, for each paper we identified the actors implementing the measures and the beneficiaries of the measures. This provided information on the types of actors involved: public authorities (and, in that case, at which scale), communities, households, and international organizations. The actorbeneficiary variables also made it possible to identify the scales of the studies, both on the implementation and beneficiary sides. Next, we identified the measures implemented in both social and environmental terms. In the table’s corresponding column, when the authors made a clear reference to it, we kept the information
