Overview
Advancing research and practice that recognize diverse worldviews, knowledge systems, and value orientations is essential to enable transformative change towards sustainability. Biocultural approaches recognize the diverse ways in which people relate to nature, offering a potential pathway for sustainability transformations. However, recent scholarship on biocultural approaches to sustainability has highlighted that social aspects such as equity and justice have not been substantively addressed, whereby gender issues have been overlooked to a great extent. Through qualitative content analysis, this review synthesizes the conceptualizations of gender and social difference within the literature on biocultural approaches to sustainability published in English and Spanish. The biocultural literature predominantly focuses on describing knowledge and management practices, neglecting power and gender relations that affect access and control over resources, and how different axes of social difference matter across different social‐ecological contexts. Overall, we found that gender considerations within the literature reviewed do not build upon feminist and gender theories. Based on these findings, we provide insights into how more nuanced engagements, especially in relation to feminist theories and tools as intersectionality and decolonial perspectives, can allow for more just scholarly efforts to address biocultural relations. Finally, we draw attention to responsible and engaged praxis towards promoting biocultural approaches that include the diverse perspectives of those who can contribute to transformative change, and which prevent the reinforcement of gender‐based power relations.

Resumen Avanzar las investigaciones y prácticas que reconozcan las diversas visiones del mundo, de los sistemas de conocimiento y de los valores es esencial para posibilitar un cambio transformador hacia la sostenibilidad. Los enfoques bioculturales dan cuenta de la multiplicidad de formas en que las personas se relacionan con la naturaleza, ofreciendo una senda potencial para las transformaciones hacia la sostenibilidad. Sin embargo, estudios recientes sobre los enfoques bioculturales a la sostenibilidad han puesto de manifiesto que aspectos sociales como la equidad y la justicia no se han abordado de forma sustantiva, y que las cuestiones de género se han pasado por alto en gran medida. A través de un análisis de contenido cualitativo, esta revisión sintetiza las conceptualizaciones de género y diferencia social en la literatura sobre enfoques bioculturales a la sostenibilidad publicada en inglés y español. La literatura revisada se centra predominantemente en describir el conocimiento y las prácticas de gestión, descuidando las relaciones de poder y de género que afectan al acceso y control sobre los recursos, y cómo diferentes ejes de diversidad social se interrelacionan en diferentes contextos socio‐ecológicos. En general, encontramos que las consideraciones de género dentro de la literatura no se basan en teorías feministas y de género. Basándonos en estas conclusiones, aportamos ideas sobre cómo un mayor compromiso con teorías y herramientas feministas, como la interseccionalidad y las perspectivas decoloniales, pueden contribuir a unos resultados académicos más justos para abordar las relaciones bioculturales. Por último, resaltamos la necesidad de una praxis responsable y comprometida con la promoción de enfoques bioculturales que incluyan las perspectivas diversas de quienes pueden contribuir al cambio transformador, y que eviten la perpetuación de las relaciones de poder basadas en el género.
