Shared resources: issues of governance

Shared resources: issues of governance The publication reviews a selection of transboundary governance systems from around the world tackling the issue of shared resources and environmental impacts affecting them.
This publication examines the characteristics of successful transboundary resource management. Various cases of different shared resources, from water to fish to air, are described and their strengths and weaknesses analysed. Successful management of transboundary resources is growing in relevance as resources become sparse and conflicts over them increase. However, many of its elements have not yet been sufficiently defined and applied.
