We aim to foster dialogue, thought and action for global environmental governance and sustainability. The Global Environmental Governance Project offers three critical functions: 1. provides a ‘clearinghouse’ of environmental governance information for scholars, researchers, students, policymakers, and diplomats; 2. serves as a ‘brutal analyst’ of available data offering rigorous theoretical, empirical and policy relevant analysis; and 3. acts as an ‘honest broker’ convening various stakeholders and facilitating dialogue and engagement.
