governance

Lisbon School

WP2 - Past case examples

• Training objectives• Better understanding of MLG in water and biodiversity

• Test the application of the framework• Provide basis for a screening exercise aimed at identifying possible cases and linkages to PhD projects

• For GoverNat• To test collectively the strengths and weaknesses of the frame before applying it in greater detail

• To collect a portfolio of cases on water and biodiversity governance in different countries

Other issues to explore

• Actors involved, their status, power relations• Most cases dealt with stakeholder participation• Cases of public participation are mainly cases of non-participation

• Role of resource attributes and different perceptions regarding resources

• Impact of MLG issues on participatory processes - ex. Monfurado case where participation is hindered with the entry of other levels

• Most cases reported are cases of failure - the exploration of the reasons for this may provide better understanding and insights for improved approaches
