Exploring the institutional landscape of governing for biodiversit

Mapping the Institutional Architecture of Global Energy Governance

This technical report is a deliverable of the CONNECT project (Coping with Fragmentation: Assessing and Reforming the current Architecture of Global Environmental Governance), funded by the Netherlands Organization for Scientific Research (NOW). CONNECT (1) takes stock of the existing level of fragmentation across a number of issue-areas in global environmental politics; (2) explains the causes of fragmentation of global governance architectures; (3) analyses the implications of fragmentation across different scales of governance; and finally, (4) suggests policy responses to increased fragmentation. This technical report presents a novel mapping of the global energy governance architecture. It presents a data-set and initial descriptive statistics that can be used for further analysis of fragmentation and institutional complexity of global energy governance

Mapping the Institutional Architecture of the Climate-Energy Nexus

This technical report is a deliverable for the CLIMENGO project. This project is funded by the Swedish Energy Agency and is a collaboration between the Institute for Environmental Studies (IVM), Lund University, Stockholm University and the Swedish Environment Institute (SEI) in Oxford. The project aims to (1) map the institutional complexity of global energy and climate governance, (2) to evaluate its effectiveness and legitimacy, (3) and to develop a knowledge-base for decision-makers. This first technical report is written to explain the methodology for data-gathering and analysis, in relation to the first objective of CLIMENGO: mapping the institutional complexity of global energy and climate governance.
