Global Governance in the 21st Century:\u00a0 Rethinking the Environmental Pillar<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

\"sdg2012ivanova-1\"<\/a>By Dr Maria Ivanova, University of Massachusetts<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

This paper addresses the need for reform of the environmental pillar of sustainable development at the global level, and responds to the recent developments from the UNEP Consultative Group of Ministers and High Level Representatives on IEG reform. Dr Ivanova outlines the contours of the current IEG reform debate, and juxtaposes them with some of the underlying challenges in addressing environmental issues globally. Whilst reform options represent a signifiant step in the right direction, more fundamental reform is needed to advance environmental objectives globally.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
