"Environmental Governance" - Definition

"Multi-level interactions (i.e., local, national, international/global) among, but not limited to, three main actors, i.e., state, market, and civil society, which interact with one another, whether in formal and informal ways; in formulating and implementing policies in response to environment-related demands and inputs from the society; bound by rules, procedures, processes, and widely-accepted behavior; for the purpose of attaining environmentally-sustainable development, a.k.a., "green growth."

Conceptualized by Ebinezer R. Florano in Florano (2008), "The Study of Environmental Governance: A Proposal for a Graduate Program in the Philippines." A conference paper read in the EROPA Seminar 2008 with the theme, "Governance in a Triptych: Environment, Migration, Peace and Order," held on 23-25 October 2008 at Traders Hotel in Pasay City, Philippines.
