The Governance of Nature and the Nature of Governance: Policy that works for biodiversity and livelihoods

This report examines the governance of biodiversity – how it is managed and how decisions about it are made – at local, national and international level. It reviews experience with community-based conservation, mainstreaming biodiversity, and the Biodiversity Convention process, and includes case studies from India, Peru and Tanzania. It also recommends ways to improve the governance of biodiversity to deliver more benefits to people and planet.
