Description

This volume examines the origins, effectiveness, and limitations of the United Nations system's approach to global environmental governance. It traces the history of the UN's approach, maps its increasingly apparent limits, and suggests needed reforms to use conflict sensitivity, peacebuilding, accountability mechanisms, and rights-based approaches as tools in the UN's environmental work.
