Research Centre Australia

The Climate and Environmental Governance Network (CEGNet) at the Australian National University is committed to contributing to the implementation of the Earth System Governance Project as part of the global alliance of Earth System Governance Research Centres. Within the Earth System Governance project, CCEG is particularly focused on theoretical, empirical and interdisciplinary research on: (i) institutions of regulation and governance (for example, property rights, markets, trade regimes, treaties, national laws); and (ii) organizational actors (for example, states, governments, international organizations, corporations, NGOs) - and the ways in which relationships and influences amongst them affect the capacity of societies to respond to environmental change and crisis.
